| “For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who has been tempted in every way as we are, yet without sin.” – Hebrews 4:15 |

| He not only knows you – HE UNDERSTANDS! Our Savior and Lord is also our HIGH PRIEST and He knows first-hand about the struggles of life because He came to this earth and lived life as a human. He faced the very struggles and temptations we face. Because He knows our weaknesses, He sympathizes with us. Let that sink in really deep. He sympathizes with you! Let us know that His sympathy is far more than feeling sorry for us. Being sympathetic means He is ready to take action to help us handle what we are facing. We have an open invitation to come boldly to the throne of grace to get help anytime we need it! Hebrews 4:16 says, “Let us therefore, come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.” Growing up we would sing a Hymn titled Does Jesus Care? The chorus would give a resounding YES. One of the stanzas goes: Does Jesus care When I’ve tried and failed To resist some temptation strong? When for my deep grief there’s no relief Though the tears flow all the day long. Oh yes, He cares, I know He cares His heart is touched with my grief When the days are weary the long night dreary I know my Savior cares! WHAT A SAVIOR!!! What a High Priest!! Does He CARE? OH YES!
