Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.
Thoughts on Today’s Verse…
God is our Shepherd. Our Shepherd has chosen to attach his goodness and mercy to us. Why? Because our Shepherd longs to shower us with his goodness, mercy, grace, and love in this life now. Then, when this life is over, he will usher us home to dwell with him forever. We praise and thank our LORD God and the Son who shepherded us with their loving care and showered us with goodness with ever-increasing blessing in this life, and the life to come, when we “will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.”

My Prayer…
Father God, please bathe my heart in your goodness and reach out through me and use my influence to extend your love to others who desperately need it. Please guide my heart as I live to experience my home with you, and you make your home with me (John 14:23). In Jesus’ name, I thank you and praise you for being my Shepherd. Amen.
