Scripture Hebrews 4: 14-16

Have you ever gone through something and felt you were the only one who has ever faced that problem? Do you ever fell that no one could possibly understand what you are going through? Do the temptations seem so strong that you wonder if you will come through this victorious? If this is how you are feeling now, I have good news for you. There is one who understands all you will ever face or have faced.

These verses tell us that Jesus is able to sympathize with us in all our weaknesses because He was tempted in the same ways that we are. The only difference is, He didn't sin. And so He can help us not to sin when we face our problems.

It also says that we can approach the throne of grace with confidence and receive mercy and grace when we are in need. Imagine, we can go before the throne of God and are welcome there. What a wonderful privilege we have. We have so much to be thankful for today. Jesus cares about how we feel and He is never to busy to answer us when we call upon Him for help.

So, whatever you are facing today, always remember there is one who knows exactly how you feel, and His name is Jesus. Go to Him today. Lay all your cares before Him and allow Him to minister His love to you.




Praise God for our High Priest
Knows all we go through
Because He faced it all
He's there for me and you
