1Brothers and sisters, if someone is caught in a sin, you who live by the Spirit should restore that person gently. But watch yourselves, or you also may be tempted. 2Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ. 3If anyone thinks they are something when they are not, they deceive themselves. 4Each one should test their own actions. Then they can take pride in themselves alone, without comparing themselves to someone else, 5for each one should carry their own load. 6Nevertheless, the one who receives instruction in the word should share all good things with their instructor. (Galatians 6)
Thoughts: This is a passage about how to relate to others.
1) When someone is in sin- restore, but be careful;
2) Carry each other's burdens.
3) Do not think too highly of yourself.
4) Test yourself- do not compare yourself
5) Carry your own load- be responsible for yourself.
6) Share blessings with your teacher/preacher.
It is important how we relate to each other. Some principles stand out- being humble, being helpful, being generous.
Prayer: Lord, help me to be selfless, and caring for you.
