Someone Who Understands
This devotional was written by Jim Liebelt

Therefore, it was necessary for Jesus to be in every respect like us, his
brothers and sisters, so that he could be our merciful and faithful High Priest
before God. He then could offer a sacrifice that would take away the sins of
the people. Since he himself has gone through suffering and temptation, he
is able to help us when we are being tempted.—Hebrews 2:17-18 NLT
The story (author unknown) is told of a farmer who had some puppies he
needed to sell. He made a sign advertising the pups and posted it in his yard.
Shortly after, a boy showed up in response to the sign. “Mister,” he said, “I
want to buy one of your puppies.” “Well,” said the farmer, “these puppies
cost a good deal of money.” The boy reached deep into his pocket, he pulled
out a handful of change and held it up to the farmer. “I've got thirty-nine
cents. Is that enough to take a look?” “Sure,” said the farmer. The farmer
whistled and called, ”Here Dolly!” From the doghouse and down the ramp ran Dolly
followed by four little pups. The little boy’s eyes danced with delight. As
the dogs approached, the little boy noticed something else stirring inside
the doghouse. Slowly another little pup appeared, but this one was considerably
smaller. The little pup began hobbling toward the others, doing its best to
catch up. “I want that one,” the little boy said, pointing to the runt. The
farmer knelt down at the boy's side and said, “Son, you don't want that
puppy. He will never be able to run and play with you like these other dogs would.”
The little boy stepped back from the fence, reached down, and rolled up one
leg of his pants revealing a steel brace running down both sides of his leg.
Looking back up at the farmer, he said, "Mister, I don't run too well
myself, and that puppy needs someone who understands.”
Not one of us is perfect. Everyone has flaws and weaknesses. Some are more
visible than others, but we all have them. Fortunately, like the boy who
chooses the pup, we have a Savior who knows and understands our feelings and our
weaknesses and still chooses us to be His friends and children! And, in
response, he wants us to demonstrate our love to one another!
If you are one who struggles with your own flaws and shortcomings, today,
take comfort in the knowledge of God’s love for you and then, share that love
with someone else! Remember, the world is full of hurting people that are
looking to connect with others who understand.
