The Lord is my Shepherd By Keneesha Saunders-Liddie The Lord is my shepherd I shall not want. He makes me to lie down in green pastures, he leadeth me by the still waters. - Psalms 23:1-2 Every morning I wake up and the worries of yesterday try to follow this brand-new day that I've been given. If I'm not careful about the way my morning start then things can spiral out of control quickly. The best way to start any day is by being grateful and thankful; then digging into God's word to see what he has for you to learn today. On the many occasions that I leave God out of the equation I don't have a good day. I start worrying about the bills and where the money will come from to pay them. I allow the things my husband didn't do or say to irritate me. I begin to complain about my job paying too little or working me too hard. Any number of things can cause me to forget God's goodness. This is why I love that the Lord is my shepherd. I have seen a goat and a sheep get butchered. The goat put up a real fight while the sheep almost seems to sacrifice itself. Sheep have no sense of direction and they're prone to wander. Sheep needs a leader. |
