Men shoulder blame and carry the burdens of those who are weak. Men also create paths rather than follow them. Don’t allow yourself to be dismayed by critics - know who you are.

• We have a duty to protect and serve those who are weaker than us. 
• In order to share in another’s burdens, we must have a heart for their healing.
• It’s not just the ability to bear someone else’s burdens - it’s about having the strength to share ours as well. 
• Our strength is fortified by our confidence in who we are.
• For a man of God, confidence stems from following Christ.
• For the man of God, confidence stems from being a man who chases after God.
