A carved shepherd tenderly carriesa lost sheep back to the fold
A friend sent this email, saying it helps her combat the bombardment of commercialism at this time of year.
The Lord sets my pace;
I will not rush.
He makes me to stop for quiet intervals;
He provides me with images of stillness
which restore my serenity.
He leads me in the ways of His purpose
through calmness of mind,
His guidance is safe and peaceful.
Even though there are many things to accomplish
I will not fret
for His presence is here.
His timelessness, His goodness
Keeps me in balance.
He prepares refreshment and renewal
in the midst of many demands.
He anoints my mind with His oil of tranquility
My cup overflows with renewed joy.
Surely harmony and good purpose
shall be the fruits of my hours;
And I will walk in the dependable rhythm of the Lord
And dwell in His house forever.
