My dear children, I write this to you so that you will not sin. But if anybody does sin, we have an advocate with the Father—Jesus Christ, the Righteous One. He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world. 1 John 2:1-2 NIV
If you were to find yourself in a tenuous situation the first thing I bet you would do is find someone to help you. Someone to speak on your behalf, who believes in you and trusts that you are on the right side. And even if you were wrong they still trust you want to make things right. I am blessed enough to have not just one advocate but several.
We also have Jesus who prays for us and pleads to the father on our behalf. I bet there's not an attorney anywhere who can negotiate like Jesus can! No matter how many times we mess up or act like only silly humans can, Jesus will be there to fight for us.
