The
LORD Is My Shepherd
The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not
want. He makes me lie down in green pastures; he leads me beside stillwaters; he restores my soul. He leads me in right
paths for his name's sake.
Even though I walk through the darkest
valley, I fear no evil; for you are with me; your rod and your staff - they
comfort me.
You prepare a table before me in the
presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely
goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell
in the house of the LORD my whole life long.
Psalm 23:1-6
God always leads us, even though we get
off the trail, get behind Him, or try to get ahead of Him. God knows the way
because He has prepared the way. But sometimes we may not see Him - so we do
our best to go where He wants by following the guidance of His Word. At other
times it may seem that He is hidden from us. His pace may not be as fast as we
want, or sometimes we may even want Him to slow down. Just remember, in God's
time. If you want God to lead you, be willing to follow.
