-come boldly-

"This High Priest of ours understands our weaknesses, for He faced ALL of the same temptations we do, yet he did not sin. So let us come BOLDLY to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive his mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it." (Hebrews 4:15-16)

My amazing accountability partner sent me this verse today for encouragement. Funny, this is the same verse that has been absolutely breaking me down for the past few days.

My God, my holy, perfect, righteous, sinless God, tells me that I can come boldly to His throne when I need Him.

It blows me away that Jesus gives me the ability to come boldly to the throne of God. When I am in need, I can boldy approach Him and ask for help and He WILL give it to me. Why me? Why, when I have been nothing more than a wretched whore to Him, should He allow me to come to His throne and ask Him for help? And why on earth should I be able to do that boldy with the confidence that He will in fact help.

Wow.

we serve an awesome God.
