A Spot of Green
In the Word
The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not be in want. He makes me lie down in green pastures … (Psalm 23:1–2a).
Of the Word
The radio was on as she drove to the hospital. She would spend another long day at her son’s bedside.
Suddenly her ear caught familiar words, He makes me lie down in green pastures … (Psalm 23:2a).
The speaker urged, “Look for a spot of green today. Let it remind you of your Shepherd’s loving care.”
As she sped down the road, she caught a glimpse of a small green field from her car window. She smiled and thanked God for His care and for the lush green reminder of it.
Do you need a tangible reminder of God’s care today? Look for a spot of green — a field, a park, a flower bed — and be assured that your Shepherd knows your need and is caring for you.
Walking with my Lord
Lord God, You are my loving Shepherd, and You provide for me each day. Forgive me when I grow weary, and help me to look for those “green pastures” where I can find rest in You. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
