Consider This...

Since he himself has gone through suffering and testing, he is able to help us when we are being tested. (Hebrews 2:18 NLT)

Sometimes what you long for is another person that can truly understand what you’re really going through. You need someone that can sympathize with you because he has walked "a mile in your shoes." Jesus in His humanity identified Himself with us and experienced the “suffering and testing” of our sin cursed world. That’s why we can go to Him in our deepest moments of despair and discouragement with the confidence that He’ll meet us there and “help” us.
