Hebrews 4
We all need someone who can understand and empathize with us and our experiences...good and bad. This is a core basis of any relationship. This is one of the aspects of Jesus Christ that makes it so easy to be in relationship with Him...He relates to all of our experiences and we can tell Him everything. He knows everything about us anyway...sin and all.
My Prayer: Lord Jesus, You are an awesome and incredible God...I know You know everything about me, including my sin...and You came to die for me anyway! How awesome and gracious are You. You are full of gentleness, patience, compassion, mercy, etc. I am so deeply grateful for all that You are and all that You have done and continue to do for me. I am blessed well beyond what I deserve. I am quick to anger, and slow to listen, selfish, etc. Yet You love me....thank You Jesus! Please forgive me for such sin and help me turn from such sin towards You. Help me overcome such sin. Help me love You with all of my heart, soul, mind and strength. Help me love others as You do. Help me grow in my faith. Help me come to You daily and deepen my relationship with You. Give me strength. Give Lisa strength, comfort and freedom from pain. Please heal and cure her of this cancer. Help me understand, be obedient to, and apply Your message for me today and every day.
For we do not have a high priest who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are—yet he did not sin. v15
