anointed.

Happy Monday!


I've been reading in Hebrews lately and, for quite some time, it talks about how Jesus is our high priest. There was one verse that really jumped out at me:


"God, your God, has set you above your companions by anointing you with the oil of joy." (Hebrews 1:9)


In this passage Jesus is the one who has been anointed, but I believe that God has anointed us with that oil, too, through His Son. I love having a tangible picture of God pouring the oil of joy over the heads of His people. God hasn't anointed you with despair, stress, frustration, anxiety, burdens, or weakness. You have been anointed with joy. 


love, Brianna
