The LORD as my Shepherd

I lack for nothing I need. He gives me peace when I lie down. I do not have to worry about
the election. He refreshes when I rise. He leads me in His will for my life and gives me
wisdom as I go to the polls. There may be dark valleys ahead, but He is with me. I do not
have to fear the changes when the new president takes over.
There will be times I go my own way and think my way is better than the LORD’s. That is
when my Shepherd has to bring me back and may have to discipline me. Yet, it comforts
me to know He loves me enough to set me straight.
There may be troubling times ahead when the new president takes over. This election has
seen divisions even within families. Sometimes these divisions lead to hate. Will some hate
me for what I believe in? Maybe, but I can still show them God’s love and how He cares for
me. As His child I have blessing overflowing. I may not have much money, and may have
less in my future, but God blesses me with things money cannot buy. Things like a loving
family and good friends and many more blessings. Too many to count!
All my life, whether I agreed with the elected president or not, God’s goodness and His love
follow closely behind me. And, because I believe in Jesus’ death on the cross and His
resurrection on the third day brings salvation to all who believe, I can know I will live in
heaven forever. The LORD is my Shepherd no matter who will be elected
