Jehovah is my shepherd;
I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures;
He leadeth me beside still waters.
He restoreth my soul:
He guideth 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 hast anointed my head with oil;
My cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and lovingkindness shall follow me all the days of my life;
And I shall dwell in the house of Jehovah for ever.
I really shall not want. I have a house to live in, my husband has a job, and we are - for the moment - secure. My cup really does run over. I have so much fruit in the house I could make a smoothie that literally did run over the edge of the cup. And I could make more if I wanted to. We are rich - not so much in money, perhaps, but in love and peace and in always having enough food in the cupboards and clothes in the closet.
Even if we had this world's goods taken from us, our God will still be watching over us and providing for us.
I am thankful. I am glad we can share what we have with people who need it.
