—Hebrews 2:14-18
by: Stephanie Ritchie.
It has been said that feeling better has become more important than finding God. Jesus didn’t suffer and hope to feel better. He knew God’s purpose for his suffering. Jesus knew that his pain would take away death for everyone and bring salvation.
His suffering helps us to know that when we suffer, we can come to Jesus. He understands what we go through. Shouldn’t we come to God knowing that our suffering may not end right away? Maybe God is trying to teach us something. Maybe we need to say, “Finding God needs to be more important than feeling better”.
