Read Hebrews 7:23-28
23 There is another difference: there were many of those other priests, because they died and could not continue their work. 24But Jesus lives on for ever, and his work as priest does not pass on to someone else. 25And so he is able, now and always, to save those who come to God through him, because he lives for ever to plead with God for them.
26 Jesus, then, is the High Priest that meets our needs. He is holy; he has no fault or sin in him; he has been set apart from sinners and raised above the heavens. 27He is not like other high priests; he does not need to offer sacrifices every day for his own sins first and then for the sins of the people. He offered one sacrifice, once and for all, when he offered himself. 28The Law of Moses appoints men who are imperfect to be high priests; but God’s promise made with the vow, which came later than the Law, appoints the Son, who has been made perfect for ever.

Think
Jesus offering of himself on the cross was enough to cover over all of our sins and bring us into right relationship with God. Trust in God's promise. Jesus is your priest who makes you right with the Lord.
Pray
Lord Jesus thank you for taking away my sins and bringing me into new relationship with you. Amen.
