My three year old grandson, is a bundle of energy. I took him to a walking trail right in the middle of our bustling town. I got him worked up about going by telling him he would be able to run. He told me “running is my exercise!” I took the wagon, but decided to leave it in the car, because I had just given him a snack cake and he was on sugar overload. I thought that he might be able to handle a two mile walk. I was wrong! We got a little over a half a mile into it and he decided that he couldn’t go anymore, and asked me to carry him! I couldn’t say no, I’m the one who foolishly brought him this far! I picked him up and we headed back to the car. I have to admit, it was a pretty good workout! When someone runs out of steam, and can no longer handle their burden, pick it up and help them carry it. There is something fulfilling about helping others. Be a wise counselor and comfort someone today.
Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ. Galatians 6:2
