Christ Understand better than you think

If I told you that I was hurting deep inside.
Would you understand?
If I said I feel stressed and overcome by the world.
Would you understand?
If I told you that I have times when I ready to give up and throw the towel in.
Would you understand?

Well I know someone who does understand the things you and I are going through.

 His name is Christ

In Hebrew 4:15 For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with
our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet
without sin.

Whatever you face, Jesus Christ has already faced it.

Christ knows what it is like:

to be hungry
to be tired
to be lonely
to be hurt
to be hated
to be beaten
to be persecuted
to be misunderstood
to be mistreated
to be mocked and laughed at
to be betrayed by a friend
to be tempted to sin
to be responsible for employees
to feel forsaken
to feel hopeless
to have no spouse
to have no earthly father there to help
to have lost a loved one
to have to pay taxes
to have money stolen from you
to have the responsibility to provide for a family
to live under an oppressive government
to experience extreme pain

We no that no temptation that is common to man , was Christ exempt  from

He was in this flesh so therefore endured those same temptations that we as men do.
Sexual temptations, pride, power(money, possession, and position)
In Hebrews 4:16 Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we
may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

Don't be afraid to talk to Christ about what is really going on in your life.

He tells to come and let us reason together, he desire to have a dialog with you.
He will say I understand, I've been there, but if you will hold onto to me
I will get you through this, I've made a way out for you. But we often times
especially us men want to fix ourselves and want to believe that we are not,
real men if we can get ourselves through these issue. He is there standing
at the door so let him in. He knows exactly what we need to get through these storms.
He will not abandoned you, after all he already bleed and died for us.
Never think that Christ does not understand your struggles and the sin nature of mankind.
There is no sin that you have committed that you can not go before the Lord with,

There is no struggle that you can bring to his thorn and lay it down before him.


I promise you that the Lord God we serve will not tell you, " I'm not carrying that for you".
I promise you that the Lord God we serve will never say your own your on.
I promise you that the Lord God we server will never tell you that I'm too busy right now.


He said he was with us always even unto death, so then isn't it time we realize.
That Christ is not a fair weather God, but a God who will stand up and walk
right out in the middle of the storm to you and board your boat and calm the sea's if you let him.
Let him speak to the storms in your life.  Let him empower you with the holy spirit,
That we might be like him, since Christ has been like us tempted but he did not sin.
We are tempted and do sin, for all have fallen short of the glory of God.
