Attention BELIEVERS...........................
Each of us is on a voyage through life and we're sure to face storms and the temptations of sin along the way. We've got to carry our own cargo but for some the burdens may become a weight too heavy to bear, therefore, they may become like sinking ships sending an SOS in desperation. I admonish you not to pass them by... help them. Why? Because we are called of God to be RESTORERS!
Galatians 6:1-2 tells us that if someone is caught in a sin, we who are spiritual should gently restore him, but in this process guard yourself from being tempted. Further, we are to carry one another's burdens, thus fulfilling the law of Christ which is to "Love one another" (we must give of ourselves to help others just as Jesus gave Himself to help us).
We must also be careful not to become self-righteous, judgmental and short on mercy. As Bros/Sis in Christ, we're a family and like all good family members, we must show concern and take good care of each other as the need arises. And in doing so, be sure to treat them as you would want to be treated in any given situation. In fact, you ought to take it a step further by doing good to all people, but especially to those who belong to our family of believers. And, just maybe... you'll give a little hope to someone, possibly leading them to Christ because of your good works!
