When Someone Offers to Help
It can be easier to carry both grocery bags yourself than to hand one over. Sometimes we do that with the heavier things, too. A friend asks how they can help, and “I’m fine” slips out before we’ve thought about the answer.
In Galatians 6:2, Paul tells us to carry one another’s burdens. There’s room in that verse for the person whose hands are full. If that’s you this Monday, try giving one honest answer. Maybe it’s “Could you sit with me for a little while?” or “Would you pray for me before I make this call?” Receiving kindness can be a way of trusting Jesus, too.
Jesus, give us the courage to ask for what we need and the tenderness to hear someone else ask. Amen.
What kind of help makes an ordinary day feel a little lighter for you?
