Jesus Understands Your Pain
Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has ascended into heaven, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to the faith we profess. For we do not have a high priest who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are – yet he did not sin. (Hebrews 4:14-15)
When you are going through a difficult time, it is easy to think that no one understands your situation. The feeling of being isolated creeps in, making you believe that you have to work through this tough season on your own.
As followers of Christ, we don’t have to think this way. Scripture contains promise after promise to remind us that Jesus is not only with us through hard times, but He can empathize with what we are feeling.
What an amazing and comforting promise this is! The author of Hebrews is reassuring you that no matter what you are dealing with – pain, agony, disappointment, depression, anxiousness, heartbreak; Jesus understands exactly how you feel. He understands because He felt all of these things while He was on this earth. He was hurt, betrayed, and disappointed by so many people, including some of His closest friends.
Whatever you are dealing with today, I pray that you realize you don’t have to walk through this difficult season alone. Jesus died a horrible, brutal death, so He could have a relationship with you. He wants you to experience His unconditional love, and He desires to walk with you through all the highs and lows of life. Turn to Him today. Seek comfort in His presence, and rest in knowing that He understands exactly what you are feeling and what you need to keep persevering.

I call out to Jesus during my most difficult times. I know He sees me through those times. It doesn't seem like it, though. Yet, I will keep calling out to my Savior
Thank you Jesus for helping me everyday. Through the highs and lows of our lives. Love you Jesus. Love you God.
Call on Jesus everyday, have a relationship with him, talk to him everyday, tell him you're troubles and he will see you through, he will comfort and guide you. All loving relationships must have a daily commitment to talk and understand each other. Jesus is different, He is the most important and a life of joy, peace and loving kindness grows with the amount of time you have with Him. The peace Jesus gives, the world does not and you will never see it or feel it unless you develop a good relationship with Him. Everyday is the only way!
