When your heart feels full of decisions, may you discover the Lord to be your shepherd.
When you want to gather and store and hustle, may you remember that you have everything you need.
When your feet are sore from pounding the pavement, may you be released to lie down in green pastures.
When your anxious thoughts swirl within you, may you be led beside still waters.
When your heart is broken, may he restore your soul.
When your way feels dark and the stakes high, may you sense his leading.
When your steps take you down and under and away from the light, may his presence in the darkness carry you.
When you feel battered by the world and on the wrong side of everything, may you experience his celebration of pleasure over you.
When the future looks hopeless, may you hear this promise over you: his goodness and mercy will follow you, and he will keep you with him forever.
