God is shepherding me,
Watching me in the landscape,
Meeting my needs,
Anticipating my moves.
Here is abundant pasture:
This is where God takes me
To enjoy a generous peace
And I am restored.
There are deathly places,
Spaces where life sucks,
But I am not afraid to frequent them,
Even if I’d rather not.
God is with me: holding out
The essential tools of shepherding.
Whatever I need to thrive,
God comforts me,
Setting a table to nourish and entertain me,
So that even my enemies
Are taken by surprise.
Surely Gods goodness will continue
To flow all around me,
And this homecoming will go on and on
Forever.

In our life and our believing
The love of God
