Since, then, we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold fast to our confession. For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who in every respect has been tested as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore approach the throne of grace with boldness, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need. (Hebrews 4:14-16, NRSV)
The high priest was the one who stood as the mediator between the people and God. He was the one who offered the sacrifices for the people and went into the Holy of Holies to be with God for the people.
And we have the greatest high priest anyone could ask for. He has suffered with us and knows our pain and our weaknesses. He knows the trials and tribulations we face. He knows what it is to live in this world.
So lean on your high priest and trust in the grace and mercy He gives to us, and know He will never leave us or forsake us.
