Hebrews 4:14-16 โ "Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has ascended into heaven, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to the faith we profess. For we do not have a high priest who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we areโyet he did not sin. Let us then approach Godโs throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need."

Acts 17:24-28 โ "The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples built by human hands. And he is not served by human hands, as if he needed anything. Rather, he himself gives everyone life and breath and everything else. From one man he made all the nations, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he marked out their appointed times in history and the boundaries of their lands. God did this so that they would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from any one of us. โFor in him we live and move and have our being.โ As some of your own poets have said, 'We are his offspring.'"

The son said to him, โFather, I have sinned against heaven and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.โ But the father said to his servants, โQuick! Bring the best robe and put it on him. Put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet. Bring the fattened calf and kill it. Letโs have a feast and celebrate. For this son of mine was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.โ So they began to celebrate."
