Endings - Closeness

“But I urge you, brethren, bear with this word of exhortation, for I have written to your briefly. Take notice that our brother Timothy has been released, with whom, if he comes soon, I shall see you. Greet all of your leaders and all the saints. Those from Italy greet you. Grace be with you all.” Hebrews 13:22-25

Hebrews is a rather unique book in the New Testament; no one can confirm who wrote it (some have even suggested a woman!), where it was written, the date it was written or even to whom it was written. Despite all of this it was included and we have some of the most beautiful verses. We learn about how much better faith in Christ is over all other systems of religion. We learn about the power of the Word itself and what faith is. Most of all we learn a new intimacy with our Father God because He understands us from the inside out.

“For we do not have a high priest who cannot sympathise with our weaknesses, but one who has been tempted in all things as we are, yet without sim. Let us therefore draw near with confidence to the throne of grace that we may receive mercy and may find grace to help in time of need.” Hebrews 4:15-16

Stay near God's Word. Take care. Your servant & friend in Christ, Darlene
