Come Boldly To God

Come Boldly To God
 
Paul writes in Hebrews 4:16, "So let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive his mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it most."
 
I try to picture this situation in my mind's eye; We, simple humans, boldly approaching Almighty God who made everything and has power over everything.  How could that be appropriate?  Yet  just like an earthly father, who wants to provide for his family's needs and help them be all they can be, God wants us to come to him with the confidence that He has mercy and grace beyond our understanding to help us.
 
Dear Lord, what a humbling and powerful confidence this gives us to know that we can come to you boldly and you will always be there with mercy and grace for us when we are in need.  In Jesus' name we pray.  Amen.
