[Jesus] shared in [our] humanity.
—Hebrews 2:14
Here are two verses that describe Jesus’ search for you:
“The Son of Man came to seek and to save what was lost” (Lk 19:10).
“The Word [Jesus] became flesh and made his dwelling among us” (Jn 1:14).
Two key words from these two sentences are came and became.
He came to earth and became human to show you that he is not callous but caring.
He came to earth and became human to show you that he is not coldhearted but compassionate.
He came to earth and became human to experience what life is like for you.
“We do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who in every respect has been tested as we are” (Heb 4:15).
You will experience nothing that he doesn’t understand
for you will go nowhere that he hasn’t been.
