Come Boldly to the Throne of Grace

Jesus won't fold His arms in disgust and turn away with frustration when people go to Him as their last resort. We might think this is how He will treat us when we finally relent, repent, and call out to Him. But He is gracious and compassionate—and on time, even though that might be difficult for us to see. 

But we have an internal (our flesh) and external (the devil) adversary that misrepresents the character of our King. These adversaries know that if we get to the Son, the Son will set us free. So they cause us to think that there is no way that He would ever help us—especially if we come to Him as our last resort.

Thankfully, we have the Scriptures that erase our misconceptions of the King’s character so that we can call out to Him and come to Him in our time of need—whether He has been our first choice or our last resort. Come to Jesus. He loves you, no matter what. You may be surprised at just how gracious He will be with you, giving you well-timed help when you need it.

“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. Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.”
Hebrews 4:15-16
