and the ‘churches’ through the ages have not sought holiness in Christ, thought, word, and deed daily. I believe the confusion is that people consider temptations to be sin. We are all tempted in many things daily, our afflictions are great, but we can do all things through Christ who...
Hebrews 4:15 highlights the significance of Jesus' suffering in relation to His humanity: "For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who was tempted in every way that we are, yet was without sin." This verse underscores that ...
it was a year of redirection. The Lord showed me that the plans He has for my next few years will probably not mirror my own. I do think there are seeds He’s planted; they’ll just be sprouting in a different place. The realization was hard. ...
For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who was tempted in every way that we are, yet was without sin. Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in ...

Jesus was tempted just as I am tempted. He understands how difficult and strenuous temptation can be, and because he was tempted as I am tempted, he is able to perfectly help me in my times of weakness and need. Jesus is able to give me the grace and mercy I need when I’m weak,...
