What up PEEPS!!!! How are things going? It has been a HOT minute, no doubt. But we are BACK! tru!!!! So how many of you have a 4-day week this week? I do, heh heh heh. Aight, on to, da Word!
checkit:
"Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need."
- Paul (Hebrews 4:16)
Da book of Hebrews is da bomb because Paul just lays out the Gospel BAM BAM BAM. He does it as if he were laying out a case. These are da facts, these are the things that have happened, these are the results, these are the choices, and this is the hope. It is da bomb diggity. But 'nough about that, cuz this verse right here is awesome. Paul just got done explainin' how we have a high priest who IS able to "sympathize with our weaknesses... one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are -- yet was without sin" straight CHILLIN' with Pops above. That's right potnas!
How does that help out kats like you and me? E... to the Z potnas! This knowledge allows us to approach da "throne of grace" with CONFIDENCE! That's right! We ain't got nothin' to fear and nothin' to lose people! Our high priest, my man J (Jesus) done went through all we are going through and he is straight representin' us in da heavenlies. We have an IN! And not just any in, but the ULTIMATE IN! So drop any hesitation and cozy on up to the throne of Grace! For by doing so, we can receive mercy from on High. YEAH KID! And, in the words of Paul, "find grace to help us in our time of need".
How many times do we find ourselves in a time of need? How many times do we find those close to us in a time of need, and hence us in a time of need? All the time no? Isn't it awesome in that time of need we can approach Pops above and receive grace and mercy? And be fully represented cuz J done went through it all? Isn't it straight awesome to know that even if we don't deserve mercy, God, by grace, will grant it to us because he wants to? Isn't it uplifting to know that despite ourselves or what we have done, if we go to God with confidence and a genuine heart, that in our time of need we will be comforted? Approach the throne of grace with confidence my bruthaz and sistaz!!!!! Cuz J has already paid the price for us.
G-bless,
- patrick
ps - offer up prayers to Pops above yo, for many recently are coming down with various cancers in the body, undergoing surgeries, and some now require medical apparati to continue living. Pray for these people and their families, most def a time of need.
