“He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature, and he upholds the universe by the word of his power. After making purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high.” Hebrews 1:3 ESV Jesus, the radiance of the glory of God. Jesus the exact imprint of His nature; the visible face of God. Jesus, who upholds the universe by His Word of power. Jesus, who made purification for my sins with His own blood. Jesus, who sat down at the right hand of the Father, to intercede for me. Jesus, God the Son. Greater then the prophets, greater than the angels, greater then Moses. Jesus, my Lord. The Father Himself said to Him, "Your throne, O God, is forever and ever, the scepter of uprightness is the scepter of your kingdom.” (Hebrews 1:8) You have a Friend in the highest of places. “He is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, since he always lives to make intercession for them.” (Hebrews 7:25) Rest in that assurance. Jesus, and only Jesus, is all you need and He will save you ”to the uttermost.” That means that nothing is outside of His reach. No detail of your life will be forgotten. Jesus, I surrender. You are my Lord, my Savior, and my God. I will wait for You and trust You with all my needs, my desires and fears, my sins and shortcomings, my hopes and disappointments. All my springs of joy are in you. Pastor Dan Giles
