Boldly Come To God

Therefore, since we have a high priest who has gone through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to the faith we profess. For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are- yet was without sin. Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and grace to help us in our time of needs. Hebrews 4:14-16

Some of us are in some pretty miserable situations. It is so tangled that it is difficult to tell where we messed up and where we are innocent. Of course none of us wants to mess up, but it is a fact that we do. Sometimes our tendency is to not ask God for help because we feel like we deserve where we are at. Of course, at the same time, it is pretty easy to find people that agree with this verdict.

The above scripture begs to differ. God says that we can boldly approach his throne. We have a high priest that doesn't condemn us. He sympathizes with our weaknesses. Come to him now with your problems whether they are your fault or not. Ask for forgiveness and receive his help. He wants to give you mercy and grace to help you in your time of need. Both mercy and grace have to do with receiving when we don't deserve it. Come because Jesus is asking you to. God says to ask and you will receive. I truly encourage you to call on the name of the Lord and be saved from whatever difficulty you find yourself in.
