Our Home and Father
God is a perfect Father, our place of peace and security. As someone recently described it to me, God is our home and our Father.
Quick to Forget

My Shepherd
Psalm 23 is such a well-known passage of Scripture. But this post makes us stop and consider what it means that "The Lord is my Shepherd."
