Do you ever need a reminder of the things you know? I did. I re-wrote Psalm 23 in my own words. In my language.
The Lord is the dependable big guy who knows what’s going on.
He knows the right time, the right portion, the right way.
I run to Him for cover; can’t meet my own needs,
but when I come to Him, He gives, and gives
and gives and gives.
When crummy, earth-shattering
things take place
even death-
I don’t fear because He is with me.
No one, nothing, can harm me
or get under my skin.
He blesses me until things overflow,
more than what I need.
Every day is promised to include goodness and love-
trailing after me
Every. Day.
And I will dwell in the house of God-
leave this earthly place.
Oh what great
delight awaits me.
Try re-writing a passage you know in your own words. Let it come alive and let the word of God re-speak life to you.
