Our God and Father is a Good God.  We have that same nature in us to do good (well-doing).  One of the good works we can do is bear one another’s burdens.  What does bear mean?  You can think of a grizzly bear ready to attack and take charge (we can stand in prayer for healing and deliverance relentlessly) or I think of a teddy bear, one to cuddle, surround with love, encouragement and to join forces with. 

"By this we know love because He laid down his life for us.  And we also ought to lay down our lives (in loving service) for the brethren." I John 3:16
