Day 23

Derrick

"God, be merciful to me, a sinner!" Luke 18:13

This was me (is still me) and I know what it means to be justified, to be declared right, I was just as this tax collector, I wasn't proud of my past (never will be) and I love that there is a God that cares for me even though I put his son on the cross...

the scripture is so beautiful i find something i identify with every day.... I cant wait to keep reading.

Kayla:

Psalm 23...it is so beautiful. And when you are living in the way that God has laid out for you, on His path, there is nothing more true than the promises we have here in this psalm. 

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures.
He leads me beside still waters.
 He restores my soul.
He leads me in 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 mercy shall follow me
   all the days of my life,
and I shall dwell in the house of the LORD
    forever.

The Lord is our Shepard. He is watching over us, providing for our needs, and caring for us. And allowing us to serve Him and His purpose, which is ultimately love.
