Good morning to you.
"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. Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need." (Hebrews 4:15-16)
Jesus Christ our High priest identifies with us in every way. The fullness of God dwelt in Him, even when He was earth, fully human, yet sinless. While He is our high priest, He was also the spotless lamb of God sacrificed in our stead, on our behalf.
Consequently we can, with confidence, approach the Father and experience His abundant mercy and amazing grace, knowing that we are seen as righteous. Christ's righteousness has been imputed (credited) to us.
This makes us feel like getting up and exuberantly dancing before God out of pure joy and delight. Oh, yes, He is worthy of of our praise. He is worth getting excited about.
So as we enjoy some welcome rest this weekend let's take some time to express our thanks and gratitude for all our awesome God has done for us.
Blessings.
Mike and Daphne
