David Talks With God

Holy Spirit,
You give me so much
I don’t have words
to thank you!

Just as I lead my sheep,
You lead me!
If enemies come,
You stand before me!

Now God you say,
“David, I guide you from within
With courage to fight evil
And with strength to win.”

“But I am also outside
of my created, too..
I shepherd every present need,
But I also, create the new!"

I am puzzled by words, God
But now that I know you’re near,
my flock can feed in safety
And my heart has lost its fear.
***

All that is of Good, God provides for us:
the turning of the planet for a new day,
our waking, air to breathe, and our next breath;
also, ideas to guide us. As David, each one of us
may know with confidence:

The Lord is my shepherd,
I shall not want.
