we have both the warning of judgment and the promise of salvation.
Rebuking 'a perverse generation' - 'They are devious people, children
who can't be trusted' - God says, 'I will hide My face from them' (20).
When, in our need, we look to Him for mercy, we have His promise: 'The
Lord will...have compassion on His servants, when He sees their power is
gone' (36). 'This is the blessing...'(1). For each tribe - Reuben (6),
Judah (7), Levi (8-11), Benjamin (12), Joseph (13-17) - , there is a
different Word from the Lord. Each of us is different. Our circumstances
are different. God knows what we need to hear. He speaks the Word which
is just right for each one. He 'loves' every one of us. We are 'in His
hands'. Let us 'follow in His steps, receiving direction from Him' (3).
