Jesus Is More Than Enough—He’s Everything

Morning watch - 6.10.25 - 4:34 am Hebrews 3:1 - 12:2
I started reading Hebrews again and man, it's hitting different this time. Those verses in chapter 3:1 and 12:2 about Jesus being our apostle and high priest, and how we need to keep our eyes on Him - there's so much more here than I realized.
I'm starting to see what the writer is doing in Hebrews. He's basically saying Jesus is better than everything. Like, way better. Not just a little bit better, but completely in another league.
So in Judaism, we have God, right? But Hebrews 1 shows me that Jesus IS God. Then chapter 2 shows He's also fully human. That's wild to think about - God became a man. The Jews had God up there, but we have God right here with us. That's already huge.
Then there's all these other big names in Judaism - angels, Moses, Joshua, Aaron. These guys were legends. But Jesus is above all of them too. It's not that they weren't important, but Jesus is what they were all pointing to.
What really gets me is this whole sacrifice thing. All those animals, all that blood, all those rituals year after year. Jesus did it once and that was it. Done. Finished. God doesn't even look at those old sacrifices anymore because Jesus' sacrifice was perfect.
That's why Paul couldn't stand it when people tried to mix the old stuff with Jesus. It's like having a smartphone but still wanting to use a telegraph. Why would you go backwards? Why would you settle for less when you have everything in Christ?
This is changing how I think about my faith. I don't need to add anything to Jesus. I don't need extra rituals or ceremonies or special days. Jesus is enough. Actually, He's more than enough - He's everything.
The old way is done. Jesus is all that matters now. That's actually pretty freeing when you think about it.
Need to remember this when I start overthinking my relationship with God.
