My Shepherd:

    The Lord leads His own beside the still waters.    Soldier of The Cross, as long as we live in this world, there will be storms and hardship.  That fact is not the problem, because we serve One who has promised to save us from the fear of evil, even in the Valley of the Shadow of Death.     Moreover, we know that we will have  enemies, but that He will set a table before us in their presence.    We have a Shepherd.  We have one who anoints us with oil.     Does your cup run over? It does if you are taking Him at his Word.    Walking by faith is an active, affirmative expression of agreeing with God.  Either these things are true or they are not.  It is a question of relinquishing pointless independence for reliance on one who is Perfect.    Do  not misunderstand.  He does not make everything go away.      If we allow Him, He will make us like Himself, and the process does  not take place without the fire and the flood.    Look up and move on!
