HE KNOWS OUR FRAME…

 “I will lead on softly according as the cattle that goeth before me and the children be able to endure.”  Genesis 33:14

 Just as Jacob knew the limits of his cattle and his children and needed to lead them softly…so our Shepherd knows our strengths, weaknesses, abilities, downsittings, uprisings and our thoughts afar off…He knows our frame. 

 We have this promise…”there hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.”  I Corinthians 10:13  If we are passing through difficulty…He knows that we are well able to endure and conquer it!  He knows our frame…

 He leads us from one faith to another faith, one strength to another strength and one glory to another glory.  He knows what we need, when we need it and when we have reached our true end.  “He knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we are dust.”  Psalms 103:148

 He orders our steps and leads on softly…”for ye have not passed this way heretofore.” Joshua 3:4   We are at a new horizon, walking into a new year, facing a new day.  We have not passed this way before but we can be confident that He that leads us leads us on softly…for He knows our frame.
