Devotional: Hebrew 5:7-9

7 In the days of his flesh, Jesus[a] offered up prayers and supplications, with loud cries and tears, to him who was able to save him from death, and he was heard because of his reverence. 8 Although he was a son, he learned obedience through what he suffered. 9 And being made perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation to all who obey him,

Although Jesus was the son of God, he offered up prayers and supplication with loud cries and tears in reverence—learning obedience through suffering sounds a lot like what I go through in my faith journey but the difference is that Jesus became perfect overcoming death redeeming our sins.

I am reminded that I may go through the sinful cycle (including challenges & hardships) over and over but because of Jesus’ salvation, I have hope.
