THE GOOD SHEPHERD
"The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to
lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He
restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his
name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of
death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff
they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of
mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I
will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever" (Psalm 23:1-6). Psalm 23
is probably the best known passage in all the Bible. Since this psalm is
so familiar, we are in danger of missing the depth of its meaning. The
LORD is my SHEPHERD, a shepherd giving care to one or more sheep, a
flock of sheep as such as He has, not just one sheep but a flock. We
that are saved are among His flock and He watches over us. He keeps the
WOLVES away from killing His sheep. Even when you choose to go through
dangers and difficulties, the SHEPHERD goes through them with you to any
height or depth or breadth. Obviously, GOD wants us to be a happy,
satisfied people. We should not be restless and jealous, always troubled
and worried about what we don't have. Why? Because He is the Lord that
heals, leads, provides, protects, preserves, etc. There should be a
spirit of thankfulness in us that brands us as belonging to Him. You
will know more satisfaction with the shepherd than with anyone or
anything else in life. You will have all the spiritual food you need
when you have proper relationship with the SHEPHERD. When you emerge
from the valleys of life, a table of food will be waiting for you that
demonstrates to your enemies the provision of GOD...HALLELUYAH! Here,
you have all the blessed promises from the GOOD SHEPHERD. Are you facing
trials today? All the keys are now in your hands, the keys to making it
through the many trials life has to offer each of us. GOD bless you all
(all of you that have been following and reading my blogs). I pray that
none of you will ever lack. The Lord, God Almighty whom I serve will
surely supply all your needs, in the name of JESUS CHRIST, Amen! Keep on
reading and following the LORD, JESUS...@fasuchem, #fasuchem, http://fasuchem.blogspot.com, http://fasuchem.wordpress.com, http://fasuchem.livejournal.com, http://fasuchem.tumblr.com, http://fasuchem.blog.com, http://fasuchem.tblog.com, http://my.opera.com/fasuchem, http://twitter.com/fasuchem, http://facebook.com/fasuchem, etc.
