The Lord is My Shepherd — That’s Relationship!

You may have seen this gem before in a chain email or on the internet. It's been around long enough you might even find a copy tucked inside an old family Bible. The author is unknown.

The Lord is my Shepherd
— that’s RELATIONSHIP!
I shall not want
— that’s SUPPLY!
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures
— that’s REST!
He leadeth me beside still waters
— that’s REFRESHMENT!
He restoreth my soul
— that’s HEALING!
He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness
— that’s GUIDANCE!
For His name sake
— that’s PURPOSE!
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil
— that’s PROTECTION!
For thou art with me
— that’s FAITHFULNESS!
Thy rod and thy staff they comfort me
— that’s COMFORT!
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies
— that’s HOPE!
Thou anointest my head with oil
— that’s CONSECRATION!
My cup runneth over
— that’s ABUNDANCE!
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life
— that’s BLESSING!
And I will dwell in the house of the Lord
— that’s SECURITY!
Forever
— that’s ETERNITY!
