Green pastures - quiet waters

God continues to amaze me on a daily, nay hourly basis. 

Last night I was feeling guilt and remorse at the decision to break up my family after watching some videos from a decade ago that were truly great times.  After a long cry and a phone call to my daughter for her perspective (after all it was her family I took away from her) I went to sleep with a somewhat heavy heart even though her words were reassuring.

So I wake up this morning to Psalm 23!  God once again gave me the direction and comfort I needed at the very moment I needed it.  To add to the beautiful words, I logged on to post my gratitude and went to 'The Paper Chase' a friends blog and she posted a gorgeous picture of her childhood home that went perfectly with the scripture.  When the enemy tries to put darkness in your mind and heart today, please go enjoy Psalm 23 as I was blessed to do.

Psalm 23 -

The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not be in want. He makes me to lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he restores my soul!  (RESTORES MY SOUL) He guides me to paths of righteousness for his name's sake.  Even 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.

You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies.  You anoint my head with oil, my cup overflows.  Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

He Restores My Soul!  - May he restore yours today as well.
