Words of
Faith &Hope
“THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD…” (Psalm 23:1)
A Christian may be defined as one who lives in a personal relationship with God through God’s Son, Jesus Christ. We live with the conviction “The Lord is my shepherd.” The Bible says we are “like sheep without a shepherd” (Matthew 9:36) meaning we need someone to guide us. Just as sheep live with the knowledge (instinct) that their shepherd will provide for them, so does every believer. God knows our needs before we ask (Matthew 6:8), yet he wants us to talk to Him and listen to Him. He wants us to be connected with Him through personal salvation, prayer, reading His Word, worship and service to others in His name. Long before anyone thought about it, God provided for our needs. Thus God made oil, coal and gas to keep us warm. He provided “vegetation: seed-bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it according to their various kinds” (Genesis 1:11). He was our first Employer (Genesis 2:15). God, who clothes the grass of the fields, clothes His children (Matthew 6:30). Along came electricity and other life changing inventions. And there have been many medical breakthroughs to help us live longer. He gave us eyes to see with, ears to hear with, and minds to think with. He has given us the ability to dream big dreams, a purpose to live for, and a faith to live by. He has given us gifts and talents to use for His glory and the ability to share His love with others and to help build His kingdom on earth. God knows our wants and makes provision for our needs. We can trust Him to see us through any situation. Consider the worst case scenario, death by execution. Dietrich Bonhoeffer was a German Lutheran pastor, theologian and anti-Nazi dissident. One of his well-known prayers was “Lord, whatever this day may bring, Thy name be praised.” Just after leading a service of worship for his fellow prisoners, he was taken to be executed. As he walked to his death, he said to his fellow prisoners, “This is the end, but for me the beginning of life.” His grace to save us; His love to sustain us; His Word to guide us; His Spirit to fill us; a home in heaven that awaits us … The Lord is my Shepherd, what more can I want? Prayer: Dear Shepherd of our souls, You are all I need. Thank you. In Jesus’ name. Amen. Peace to you and please join us for worship this Sunday in a church where Jesus’ love is lived.
