On Wednesday night, I
had a horrible headache. I was keeping our toddler, and trying to allow
my wife who is pregnant to sleep through the night. My toddler was
screaming at the top of his lungs. It was almost unbearable.
My wife who is a nurse
came and patiently took care of me and saved me from it.
I've always thought
that if anyone brought up a headache that they were making excuses. Now,
I know better.
Aren't you glad that
God is not like I was? Our God can identify with our pain.
That's why Jesus came
to know our human experience. Jesus was moved with compassion for us
(Matthew 9:36).
Jesus just wasn't moved
with compassion, but He did something about it. He came to save us.
He wants to be present with us in our pain, and walk through it with us in it.
Let's worship Him for
He is our great God. Worship is responding to who He is.
