Sheep

I sit here waiting…

Waiting for anything…

Waiting for nothing…

Life is funny like that. 

Full of expectation and wonder…

And right now, peace. 

I feel like there is a storm coming because I just feel peace in the waiting. Like the sheep trusting the Shepherd for safety, I am trusting this peace will sustain me.

Peace is a good feeling. Even though I have chaos all around me, I feel like I am peaceful. 

I don’t know what’s going on inside me. Last week I mentioned that my health isn’t the best. But while I’m here and surrounded by family and friends, I want to show the peace I feel. I don’t want to show the turmoil that seems to be so near. 

Lord, keep me humble, meek and lowly. Let me be as your sheep; keep me between your rod and staff so that I stay safe in your fold. Let me, dear Lord, not wander from my Shepherd. Keep me, oh gracious Lord.
