Bear the infirmities of the weak

Romans 15:1-3 kjv. "We then that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves. Let every one of us please his neighbour for his good to edification. For even Christ pleased not himself; but, as it is written, 'The reproaches of them that reproached thee fell on me.'" We as believers need to be strong in the faith, because there are those who are weaker and need encouragement in their walk with Christ. So many people walk in defeat because of their lack of faith. Faith can increase in us in many different ways. My faith has become stronger by experience, by the mountains of life, and by the floods that pressure the mind. Even though there are disappointments, keep on Believing in the promises of the Lord. Just like Jesus, we too must put our eyes on the harvest and not on self. Jesus was not here to please Himself, neither should we be focused on pleasing ourselves. He had a purpose in life, and it was to help bring Life and Truth to all humanity. All reproach, that was meant for you and I, fell on Him. Are there people among you that are weak in the faith and in need of help? Let Christ move through you, and put out a hand or two, to bear their infirmities. Pray for strength today, and God will bring it to past.
