Relationship with God, Part I: God’s Word – the Bible
God’s Word is the most valuable possession we have on this earth. It is the Father’s personal letter to us. We are desparate for His Word because it feeds and nourishes us, guides us, transforms us, empowers us & protects us.

The Lord is My Shepherd Part 3
King David continues to teach us about how God loves us by using the illustration of a shepherd taking care of his flock of sheep. Shepherds had to prepare fields to remove poisonous plants and they would anoint the sheep with oil to ward of harmful insects. God looks after us in a similar way as He provides for our needs and watches over us. It is amazing to know that the God who rules over the whole universe cares for insignificant creatures like us. We should celebrate this care and then love other people with the same kind of care that God has shown to us.

The Lord is My Shepherd Part 2
Sheep are powerless to fend off predators so a good shepherd must be skilled in fighting so that he can protect his flock from harm. The Bible teaches us that God is the shepherd of those who believe in Him, so they have the most powerful being in the universe as their protector, and the wisest being in the universe as their guide. This does not mean that God will never lead His children into difficult circumstances or make their life easy and comfortable, but instead it means that when we go through circumstances as dark as death itself that He is right there beside us to protect us and guide us through them, and this should be a source of tremendous comfort and hope in the midst of trying times.

The Lord is My Shepherd
Sheep are famous for being stupid, helpless, and timid animals. They need a shepherd to lead them to food, water, and rest, to track down the lost sheep, to protect them from predators and give them a sense of safety. The Bible compares us to sheep and it not a compliment. We too can be panicky, wayward, and incapable of taking care of ourselves. The great news is that the almighty God who created the universe cares deeply about each one of us, and if we put our trust in Him He will be our shepherd, providing for our needs, protecting us, and guiding us through even the darkest of circumstances.
