Psalms For Psalms- Day 23

God, in His kindness and graciousness, continues to point out new things in His Word to me every day. 

All He asks is that we come to His stream, His Word and sit with Him. 

Psalm 23 hits hard in both rest and grief. I am drawn by the imagery of still streams and quiet water. Yet, I think about my two children in heaven who have gone through the “Shadow of Death” 

To know that God walks with us in both the quiet and the difficult moments gives me strength. To know there will be heavenly restoration is a beautiful reflection. 

This is my cry and prayer. Lord, may I sit and dwell beside You forever. May Your words cling to my heart as we stride through this race of life, together. 

Psalms 23- Sit In His Stream

God shepherds His people to safety
A compass on the open seas
Light in the overwhelming darkness
Lying with You, all worries cease 

With God we shall never want
He satisfies our longings
Sweetness on our lips
Christ gives us true belonging

In life, we try to race
But with Christ, we rest
Fold your hands, close your eyes
Our Father knows what’s best

Like broken clockwork toys
Our hearts need mending
Christ fixes our parts
His care is unending 

Death comes surely
But our Savior is surer 
Give us peace Lord
Help us pursue what’s purer

When God provides
His table is flowing
Would we sit in Your stream
Living in Your Grace bestowing
