The Lord is My Shepherd 2/22


(By Grace E. Easley)
The Lord is my shepherd, 
And I am His lamb, 
Who loves me in spite 
Of the way that I am. 
Who sees something in me, 
That other folks miss, 
And I sometimes think maybe, 
Because of this 
I've never felt bitter, 
Unloved or alone, 
Though sometimes I grieve for 
My loved ones now gone. 
For I've always believed in 
The words He has said, 
That the spirit lives on, 
Though the body be dead. 
And I feel closer to Him, 
Because of His care, 
And I know when I call Him, 
That He will be there. 
So I fear not the shadows, 
So dark and so dim, 
For my shepherd will carry me 
Safely through them.

My Comments: Aren’t I glad that He loves me in spite of the way that I am? I’m not sure that I’ve never felt unloved or alone, but I do recognize that when I feel that way, it is because I’m not allowing the Lord to meet my needs.
