The Lord – My Shepherd

thelordismyshepherd

This is a poem I wrote based on Psalm 23

 

I am on a journey and God is my guide

I didn't know where I was going I was lost

Now, I follow God and He leads me where I need to go

When I am tired he lets me rest

He shows me the right way and the right thing to do

If we must go through dangerous and scary places

I am not afraid

God is a good leader

I know that if he is taking me through a place there is a good reason

I trust that He knows best

I know he loves me and has my best interests at heart

If I stumble He picks me up

He comforts me

He reassures me

He feeds me

He overcomes my enemies

He protects me

I know that I am blessed and favored

My future holds goodness

I am on my way to the house of God

He has a room there with my name on it and I will live there with him forever

 

(Today is my son's birthday. He was born on the 23rd day and all things 23 remind me of him).
