Tombstones and Shepherds.

"The Lord is my shepherd is written on many more tombstones than lives."

~ Dallas Willard

Is Christ the shepherd of your life?

Really?

I say that I want Him to be my shepherd; but deep down, I know that I am a fickle and faithless little sheep.

All too often, I choose the things of this world over my relationship with Christ.

I long for Christ to be my center, the heart and the soul of my life.

I want His heart of compassion to be my heart.

I want His love for Abba to be my love.

I want ....

....well, God only knows what I really want.

Forgive me Father God for being such a silly old ewe.

Thank you God, that Christ is my good shepherd.

I love that you love me the way that you do.
