God knows what we need...

Did you know that God leads us with full appreciation of our weaknesses and limitations? Heb 4:15 (NIV) For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are—yet was without sin.

We have the assurance that God not only knows about our weaknesses. But God had experienced our weaknesses and thus is able to empathise with us. And that is why the Bible describes Jesus as interceding for us. God also understands how much we can cope with. He understands our human limitations, whether physical, emotional or spiritual. Psa 144:3 - 4 (NIV) O LORD, what is man that you care for him, the son of man that you think of him? 4 Man is like a breath; his days are like a fleeting shadow. God knows what we need, when we need it and how we need it. Even Jesus knew when His disciples needed to rest. God does not drive us or push us without concern for our limitations.
