Just like each of us, I need my soul to be restored from the impact the fall in the garden had on mankind.
“For His name’s sake.” Wow, I’m so thankful God keeps drawing me closer to Him because of His covenant with me – for His name’s sake. His unfailing faithfulness is such a wonderful blessing in my life.
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.
Psalm 23
The more I get to know the Lord, and the more time I spend with Him, the more I want to dwell in His house of green pastures, and still waters as He continues to restore my soul.
God bless,
Mark
