shepherd

It'd been a very long time since I updated this blog. It's half-dead. xP Almost everyone i know have hectic schedules, and still, they have the time to update their respective blogs. Sometimes i wonder where they got all those time, I want to get some too... *pouts*

Well anyways, despite of all the tiredness, I'm very assured that God's walking along with me in this (exhausting) journey of my life. God is like our shepherd. Through thick and thin, he is with us. When we're down, He's with us. When we're feeling great, (often we forget that) He's with us too! He always wants the best for us. Let's look at the passage below :--

Psalms 23
1 The LORD is my shepherd;
I shall not want.
2 He makes me to lie down in green pastures;
He leads me besides the still waters.
3 He restores my soul;
He leads me in the paths of righteousness
For His name's sake.
4 Yea, though i walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil;
For You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
You anoint my head with oil;
My cup runs over.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
All the days of my life;
And i will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.
So, with Him around, there's nothing else that I desire. He always want the best for us, He wants it so badly that He let His Son suffer all the pain, all the shame, on that cross. And He knows that we're gonna do wrong stuff sometimes, He's gonna lead us, guide us, to be righteous. THOUGH I WALK THROUGH DANGER/DEATH/SADNESS/SIN/WHATEVER-YOU-CALL-HORRIBLE, I SHALL FEAR NO EVIL, BECAUSE HE IS WITH ME!!! He always bless us, even when we're in trouble, He blesses us till we OVERFLOW. Guaranteed, goodness and mercy will follow us (or in the real text, CHASE AFTER US!!) when we dwell in God's house (love) forever.
That's why I looooove Him so much. He provides, protects, loves, blesses, comforts, teaches, guides, walks with us, sacrifices, leads. He make everything complete. That's why despite all things, I still feel great! :)
We are not super people. We are vulnerable. That's why we are called sheep. Sheep have nothing to protect them but their shepherd. God is our shepherd and so we shall trust in Him. No matter what. He is almighty, omnipresent, all-knowing.
Thank You Lord for being my shepherd. Amen. :D
p/s this post is rather unorganised. I hope that you wouldn't mind me. hehe :)
God bless you :) xoxo
