A Prayer For Bearing One Another’s Burdens

Father, each of us has the opportunity to touch another’s life as we come alongside them in their time of need. Likewise, we benefit from one who gives freely of their time and resources, their wisdom and love as they see us in need. We are reminded throughout Scripture that we have a duty to help and encourage those around us, especially our brothers and sisters while sojourning here below. Help us to be mindful of those in need as we fulfill Christ’s command, “Do unto others as you would have them do to you.” We want to “bear one another’s burden and so fulfill the law of Christ”. Amen.
