Carrying Each Other's Burdens

Galations 6:2 (NIV) "Carry each other's burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ."

Have you ever thought where the above verse comes from? Besides God telling Paul to write it.

Yesterday, was Good Friday. My parent's church had communion service last night. The special music was "Watch the Lamb". I was listening to the words of the song, and picturing it in my head. You get to the part of the guy who was pulled from the crowd and told to carry Christ's cross. That guy was Simon of Cyrene. He carried the cross for Jesus to Golgotha. He carried his burden for him, just like it says to do in Galations 6:2. I never thought of it like that before. I thought it was a very interesting thought.
