1 John 2:1 "My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:"
Advocate: "a pleader, counsel for defense, legal assistant, an advocate. One who pleads another's cause with one, an intercessor."
Jesus Christ, the Holy Son of God, is my advocate. Our goal is His perfection, yet we know this is not attainable this side of Heaven. But we strive on, knowing that when we fail we have an Advocate, pleading our cause. That is truly unfathomable. Jesus, the One Who suffered, bled, and died for the very sin we commit, loves us that much. His sacrifice on the cross covers us and guarantees our forgiveness.
Take some time to think on that.
