JESUS GOT INVOLVED

“Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.”

Galatians 6:2 KJV

A professor who was teaching medical students said “Don’t get involved with your patients”.  Jesus, the greatest Physician of all, gets involved with people.  “When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews also weeping which came with her, he groaned in the spirit, and was troubled,” (John 11:35).

Christians are to care about people and not only pray for them but also encourage and comfort them as God comforts us.  “Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God:” (2 Corinthians 1:4).

If we want to become encouragers and comforters to one another then we are going to have to shut off the television and get out of our comfort zone and serve the One Who loves us so much He died for us.  May God help us to live so that others will always see Jesus in our smiles and hear Him in what we say.
