Oversized load

I have been talking with a couple of friends lately as some different things have come up that have been challenging on many different fronts. I have used an analogy of overloaded trucks. If they are large in anyway that exceeds their size they have flags. Then I put the thought that we as humans at times are overloaded and we just keep getting overloaded by trying to carry other people's burdens as well. Why don't we have flags? I know that as Christians we are to give all those matters back to God, but how is it possible not to carry these burdens that are God's burdens if we are to see things through his eyes. We are supposed to gain his heart for his people right? So how are we supposed to do this, without feeling overwhelmed?

There are times when I hear some people say that they hate people. I can honestly say that I love people I hate the sins that people get intwined in, but I love them neither way. I enjoy listening most of the time about struggles that people are facing so that I can bring them forth in prayer to our God. At times there are things that are so deep and someone has hurt some one very deeply by their words and have no idea that they did it. Those are the times that I want to smack some sense into that person to make them realize what they did to the person that they supposedly love. I do blame sin, there is no doubt in my mind that this is the case. So I challenge my readers to go and make things right with the person you wronged. If you don't know if you have and are a believer of our Lord Jesus Christ, ask him to reveal it to you.
