The 23rd Psalm

I have continually felt the Lord drawing me back to the 23rd Psalm over the past 2 weeks. Since today is the 23rd...I thought I'd share.

Now I was a really cool Bible quizzer back in the day, so I'm pretty much an NIV girl although every now and then I pick up a NLT...which I did today.

The Lord is my shepherd; I have all that I need.
He lets me rest in green meadows; he leads me beside peaceful streams.
He renews my strength. He guides me along right paths, bringing honor to his name.
Even when I walk through the darkest valley, I will not be afraid, for you are close beside me. Your rod and your staff protect and comfort me.
You prepare a feast for me in the presence of my enemies. You honor me by anointing my head with oil. My cup overflows with blessings.
Surely your goodness and unfailing love will pursue me all the days of my life, and I will live in the house of the Lord forever.

God is going to take care of me, I need nothing but HIM!
He gives me strength when I am weak, he gives me rest when I need it!
Though difficult times, I know that God is there! He looks after me and protects me even when I have no idea!

I am in one of those places in my life where I know change is coming. At the moment I have no idea where God is leading. All I know is that I am seeking after Him and I am ready to follow.
