Daily Dose of God's Word For October 7th

Daily Dose of God's Word For 10-7

Psalms 23

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.  Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.

Genesis 48


"Lord, I want this life that is outlined in Psalm 23, a life of sustenance and balance, resilience and guidance, confidence and assurance, influence and abundance, benevolence and inheritance. I know that you’ve made this available not because of my goodness, because I'm not, but because of your goodness and your grace. Jesus Christ, thank you for paying for all of these things with your life. That as much as I know how, I ask you to be my Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd lays down his life for the sheep, and you did that for me. I don't understand though, but I'm asking you to make yourself real to me, and I want to learn to love you and follow you and trust you. You're a good God. I pray this humbly in your name. Amen."  Rick Warren
