A Prayer of Dependence
Dear Lord, I come to You in much the same way that
sheep return to their shepherd.
I have been stubborn in the past and have wandered from Your care.
I have become confused and lost my way.
And I have run into thorns that have cut deep.
But now, I run with my arms open wide to You.
For as a shepherd protects his sheep, so You lift me, O Lord, in Your protective
arms above the overwhelming times of life.
And as a shepherd loves his sheep, so I feel Your forgiving hand of love heal
the hurts within my heart today.
Thank You, gentle Shepherd.
I will love and praise You forevermore. |
