"I sat where they sat" - Ezekiel 3:15
*******
Do you ever wonder if anyone has gone through the things that you go through? Do you sometimes feel as if you are utterly alone and nobody understands or cares?
One of the most marvelous things about Christ is His infinite capacity to feel what we feel, to experience what we experience. This is because He, like the Prophet Ezekiel, has sat where we sit. He has been there, and He is there now (Hebrews 4:15,16)
God is not off somehwre in the distance...a God by proxy. He loved man so much that He sent His son Jesus to earth in the form of a human being to walk among the people with problems and needs. God, through Jesus, got down where we are. He sat amidst the hurts and problems that invade your life. So now there is no distance between you and Him, or between the needs and His power to meet them.
Christ's plan for man was twofold: He would walk through life himself, and He would come back to walk us through it. To me that is a powerful thought...knowing that Jesus is by my side helping me through situations that He has already overcome!
His name is Emmanuel - God with us. Halleluyah!

Prayer: Lord Jesus thank you for being with me. Amen
