Psalm 23

A Psalm by David.

23:1 Yahweh is my shepherd:
I shall lack nothing.
23:2 He makes me lie down in green pastures.
He leads me beside still waters.
23:3 He restores my soul.
He guides me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.
23:4 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.
23:5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil.
My cup runs over.
23:6 Surely goodness and loving kindness shall follow me all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in Yahweh’s house forever.

When We Feel Lost

There are many of us that have been through a rough tough through our life and we always feel like we're lost during that time. No truly knows why we feel that sort of feeling, but some have guessed that its connected to a feeling of emptiness, or rather feeling of something, or someone not there when we think they should be. We feel as if someone or something important in our life is missing, or rather not being there for us; helping us when we're down. Almost as if God isn't there when we're going through a rough time in our life. 


Second Corinthians 4:16-18 “So we do not lose heart. Though our outer man is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day. For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal.”





While we may feel this way, in actuality, He's closer to us then than any other time. We just simply forget to keep Him in sight, or to even look for Him. We basically give up on Him. We need to realize this and remember that God doesn't abandon His children, nor does He want us to feel miserable and have horrible lives. We should always look for Him and pray to Him to help us. That's the only way we will actually truly feel better and completely. If thee's anyone out there feeling this way, please know that God is thee with you and He wants you to know that He truly does love you and care for you and He would do anything for you. All you need to do is keep in your sight and love Him back.
