The Lord takes care of me.
He satisfies all the longings of my soul.
He causes me to rest in Him, to come to Him in the quiet stillness where there is fresh food-for-thought and thirst-quenching water.
He takes my beat-up, worn-out heart and strips its many layers. He chips away. He sands the rough spots. He puts in the time and energy, covers the cost of restoring me to the original, because He values me.
He leads me in this journey to holiness that He may be glorified.
Even when I have less-than-mountaintop experiences and death seems foreboding, I choose not to fear. My Maker has brought me to this point and He surely won't leave me now! Memories of His correction and protection bring me great encouragement.
Oh! What an abundant feast is mine in this life You've prepared for me! Those who have not yet allowed You to shepherd their hearts recognize how greatly blessed I am to be in Your care. You have chosen me to be Yours FOREVER-- my heart is overwhelmed by such love!
I can face each new day with a smile, knowing Your desire toward me is goodness and mercy. The blessings of Your love chase after me and overtake me every hour.
I want this Love story never to end, and You've promised me it doesn't have to. An eternity with the Love of my Life... I look forward to living in Your house forever.
