Galatians 6.2 The apostle steps up our care for our brethren into a wider range. Verse 1 speaks of restoring a brother who stumbles, Verse 2 speaks of assisting a brother who staggers. Our spiritual life is not for us to live between us and Christ alone, it is for us to give of ourselves to others in their need (who in turn will put their shoulders under our burdens as well). Together, in Christ, we press toward the mark of the high calling in Christ Jesus.
