These words remind us of the curtain in the temple in Jerusalem which the Hebrew people were aware of. The curtain prevented people from entering the place where God’s glory represented His presence. Today there is no temple but the verse reminds us that Jesus, our Savior, is in the presence of God serving on our behalf. He is praying for us. That makes a big difference for us. It gives us hope. It makes life worth living. It especially makes it worthwhile to live for God. Jesus is in God’s presence interceding for us!

“We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure. It enters the inner sanctuary behind the curtain, where our forerunner, Jesus, has entered on our behalf.” Hebrews 6:19-20a (NIV)
