Reading: Psalm 23

The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures; he leads me beside still waters;
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.

 
Reflection:  

Shepherds take care of the sheep. Like God takes care of us.
He gives us shelter when we need it.
Everlasting love,
Protection,
Hope and
Everything I might need.
Remember this when you are in
Dark or scary times that God is with you.

–Claire Hershberger

Prayer:

Dear God, thank you for guiding me through hard times.

Amen.
