/*The Lord is my shepherd ... -- Psalm 23:1*/

Even though I lived, briefly, on a sheep farm, I don't know much about 
sheep and shepherds, except that sheep aren't very smart. Sheep munch on 
grass and don't pay much attention to anything else, except when the 
shepherd's dog races out to round them up.

If it wasn't for the shepherd, the sheep would have no water (on our 
farm it needed to be pumped into the troughs), they wouldn't get out to 
pasture, they wouldn't get back to the safety of the barn at night, they 
would never get any medical attention.

The shepherd had to figure out that they needed all this. But the 
shepherd doesn't get angry or impatient with the sheep for being so dull 
and dependent. He (or she) just anticipates and takes care of the 
sheep's every need.

I'm glad God knows what I need, even when I do not. I'm glad the Holy 
Spirit prays for me, even when I don't know what to pray for myself.

We may have needs and dangers that we don't even see, but God is there, 
our Shepherd, ready with the answer.

Be encouraged!
Dwight
