Practical Ways to Bear Burdens <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

1 Thessalonians 5:14<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

There are hurting people everywhere, but at times we just don’t know what to say or do to ease their pain. <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Here are six practical ways to bear someone else’s burden.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Be there<\/span>.<\/strong> At times the best “method” of helping is simply to be present. During our darkest hours, we don’t need someone who tries in vain to fix everything; we just need a friend. <\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Listen.<\/span> <\/strong>Don’t attempt to give answers or tell people what to do next. Injured souls frequently want simply a listening ear so they can express what’s on their mind. <\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Share<\/span>. <\/strong>Never parade yourself as someone who has all the answers. Instead, allow your own pain and failures to help others. <\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  4. Pray<\/span>.<\/strong> There is power in speaking people’s names before the Lord. When they hear someone talk to Jesus on their behalf, healing often starts taking place. <\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  5. Give<\/span>. <\/strong>Sometimes helping others involves more than a handshake or warm hug. Maybe they need something financial or material. One of the best measures of sincerity is how much we’re willing to give to others. <\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  6. Substitute.<\/span><\/strong>You may know an individual who bears the burden of caring for someone else. If you step in and take his or her place for a while, you are emulating your Savior–He, too, was a substitute. <\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Because we were unable to do it ourselves, Jesus bore all of our sin and sorrow, even unto death. As a result, we can live happily and eternally in communion with our Father. If Christ did that for us, how can we ever say, “I’m too busy to bear someone else’s burden”?<\/span><\/p>\n
