"I can carry you"

In life, we all face our own challenges and difficulties. And, although we can empathise with other people and their problems, whether we have been through similar experiences or not, no one can be in our situations for us. And this is clearly highlighted towards the end of the Lord of the Rings Trilogy when Frodo’s dear, friend and companion, admits that he cannot carry Frodo’s burden – which was the ring around his neck. However, Samwise Gamgee realised that he could carry Frodo to where they needed to go – Mount Doom. Sam says to Frodo:

“I can’t carry it for you, but I can carry you”

This is a powerful, and poignant, moment in the film, revealing the true and faithful heart of a friend who ‘sticks closer than a brother’ (Proverbs 18:24).
