‘The Lord Is My Shepherd, I Shall Not Want…’
Author: siggy‘The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want…’ is the opening lines of the Psalm King David wrote (the twenty-third Psalm). Know when you are struggling, He will never forsake you. Humans might, but not The Almighty.
Repeat those lines over and over even when you feel out of control and there is no hope. Cling to those words until they become saturated in every corner of your being.
Know He will take care of your every need, know He will not forsake you even in your darkest hour. By all means read the rest of that psalm. Just know he will fill every need you have and will never forsake you even when others let you down.
We are all imperfect and flawed. ‘The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.’ If that is all you have, that is all you need. Never lose sight He cares about every thing you do and say.
He is always at your side. Never lose sight of that. And make sure you do not fight your fight alone for others will pick you up when you slip and fall.
So find a body in a church you are comfortable with. You have to make yourself accountable to others. It matters. Another person can pick you up when you fall. And we all do. And God works through others.
