We have a High Priest that knows exactly what we are going through. Who is this High Priest that can sympathize with us? Hebrews 4:14 tells us that it’s Jesus. Jesus is our High Priest. He was in every way tempted just as we are. And yet, without sin. He lived in very much the same way we do and still was sinless. Jesus can understand what we are going through and what we are tempted with.

It always amazes me when we have trouble in our lives but we don’t come to the Lord because we find our problems might not concern the Lord. Or maybe we feel God is too far away and won’t understand what we need. But He does. God is a Holy God and still needs to be viewed as Holy, but for the believer, we can come boldly to the throne of grace and obtain mercy and find grace to help in the time of need. When we need it most, we receive mercy and grace. Jesus gets us, we now have the great opportunity to come to Him in our time of need.

Jesus gets me!
