The Lord is my Shepherd……
bible.com/bible/100/zep.3.17.NASB1995
The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside quiet waters. He restores my soul. Psalms 23:1-3a
The Lord is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear? The Lord is the defense of my life; Whom shall I dread? Psalms 27:1
A Time to Pray
Who’s yoke do we take to find rest? We must be clear, it is JESUS who is speaking and it is upon HIM that we will lay our burdens. It is HE, where we will find rest. If you don’t know JESUS personally, please reach out. HE, is the path to LIFE, for those who believe! Can I get an Amen?
Prayer, it changes things, but it also changes us, as we submit our requests to God.
Read CAREFULLY. This does not say some people, it says ALL! Forgive me Lord, when I selectively choose who I Love and who I don’t. I would be in severe trouble if you did that to me. Give us your compassion for helping you restore lost souls through your son Jesus.
Golden Rule

Note from Study Bible
Versions of the “Golden Rule” existed before Christ, in the rabbinic writings and even in Hinduism and Buddhism. All of them cast the rule as a negative command, such as Rabbi Hillel’s version, “What is hateful to yourself do not to someone else.” Jesus made it a positive command, enriching its meaning and underscoring that this one imperative aptly summarizes the whole gist of the ethical principles contained in the Law and the Prophets.
Our prayers are not for us to be seen, but for us and our hearts to be seen by God. It is not for us to receive Glory, but for him to receive Glory and Honor and Praise, and to petition him for his will ours needs? It’s not about us, but about him.
Choose Life (see more below)
loses his life … will save it. This paradoxical saying reveals an important spiritual truth: those who pursue a life of ease, comfort, and acceptance by the world will not find eternal life. On the other hand, those who give up their lives for the sake of Christ and the gospel will find it. Cf. Jn 12:25.
