Topic: Mind your own business.
Galatians 6:1-2 KJV
Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted. [2] Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.
We are in world where everyone wants to be free from responsibilities, both their's and other's. A selfish world, of people saying "mind your own business". That is actually the slogan of many and the watchword of many other people. Some claimed to have experienced troubles due to interfering in other's matters with the intention of helping, so they've decided to also mind their business subsequently.
Are we to mind our business as christians or not?
Yes we are
1 Thessalonians 4:11 KJV
And that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you;

The question is, what is my business?
The father's business is our business. Luke 2:49 KJV
And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be about my Father's business?
Bearing one another's burdens is also our business as children of God. We are not called unto selfishness, but unto holiness. Many Christians of this present age do not care about others, this is not right, we are not to compete with each other, we are to complement each other. Philippians 2:3-4 KJV
Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves. [4] Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.
We need to let our hearts conform to the word of God, and choose to care for others, care for those that are falling.
Hebrews 12:12-13 KJV
Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees; [13] And make straight paths for your feet, lest that which is lame be turned out of the way; but let it rather be healed.
Remember when we lend helping hands to people, let's do it with meekness not for vain glory.

Prayer: Lord grant me the grace to bear other's burden without a desire for vain glory in Jesus' name.
Remain blessed.
