Seeking Justice(16)small

Galatians 6:1-5

  • The “not my problem” mentality is a problem (Galatians 6:1a, 2a)
  • Make sure other’s problems don’t become your problems  (Galatians 6:1b)
  • Love means helping others with their problems as if they are your problems (Galatians 6:2b)
  • Because it’s not your problem doesn’t mean it’s not a problem (Galatians 6:3)
