Because Christ

Because Christ took on flesh
While remaining Holy God,
He experienced all we humans do
Of joy and of sorrow and of temptation;
Yet because He never gave way to temptation,
He served as our Substitute,
In life and in death,
Before the Father.
Because Christ is now seated at the right hand of the Father,
He serves as our Intercessor,
Perfectly suited as such.
Because Christ lived and lives,
We can bring our anxieties to Him and
He knows what that temptation to be anxious is.
We can bring our joys to Him and
He knows what joy is like.
We can bring our deepest sorrows to Him and
He knows deep sorrow, too.
O how perfect our Christ is in all ways!
