Sermon 12/21/25: Love- Wednesday's Devotional

God Relates to Your Struggle
Reading: Hebrews 4:14-16

Because God took on flesh, He understands your temptations, weaknesses, grief, pain, and sorrow—He experienced them all. Jesus didn't observe human suffering from heaven's throne; He lived it. He felt hunger, exhaustion, betrayal, and loss. When you struggle, know that you have a High Priest who relates. He's not distant or disconnected. He walked dusty roads, wept at gravesides, and faced the ultimate darkness. This means you can approach God's throne with confidence, not in fear. He gets it. He's been there. Whatever you're facing today, bring it to the One who wore your skin and felt your pain. His empathy is perfect because His love for you is perfect, and His experience was real.
