He Cares, He Really Cares

REFERENCE:  Heb. 4:14-16 So then, since we have a great High Priest who has entered heaven, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to what we believe. 15 This High Priest of ours understands our weaknesses, for he faced all of the same testings we do, yet he did not sin. 16 So let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive his mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it most.

Observation:  Even as we are told that Jesus understands our testings and temptations, we are encouraged to "boldly" come to the throne. This is a blessing!! God who understands my weaknesses, none the less, promises mercy and grace.

Application/Confession: When I am tempted, instead of hiding it or pretending that it's not happening, I need to throw myself on the grace and mercy of God Himself.

PRAYER: Lord, help me. You never intended for me to face my weaknesses and temptations alone--You intended me to bring them before You. May I always do so.
