For He knows our frame;
He remembers that we are dust.
Ps 103:14

This is a house.

Sort of.

It’s just a frame really.

Just a skeleton.

Although the walls are really important, and the windows, and the roof will be essential,

the frame IS the house.

Without the frame, there is no house.

These past few months alot of things have been stripped away in my life. Not for sin. Not due to any tragedy. Just as a result of obedience to the Lord.

In between many of the Psalms, this word is printed:

Selah.

It’s an indicator to the musician or the listener that it is time to reflect on what just happened.
To pause.  To think.

I’ve been in a Selah kind of season these past few months.
And as it’s begining to close and another season is on the horizon,
what has emerged is a Frame.

My frame.

The most important issue in life is Jesus Christ:

Do I love Him?
Do I live for Him?
Do I gather my worth from my relationship with Him and the Father?
Do I follow?
Do I obey?

That’s the frame.
That’s the essentials.

Job. Ministry. Family even, are secondary.

What’s your Frame?

When everything is stripped away– what is your life constructed of?
What holds it up?
What shapes it?

Jesus IS the sure foundation (Isaiah 28:16) —
But he is also my Frame.

And as the walls and the roof and the windows all begin to be put back in place –He is the one on whom they all rest.
