IBS-Restored

Sept. 27, 2011

Psalm 23:3

"He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness for His name's sake."
My life is a roller coaster ride of happiness, sorrow, joy, and despair. When I find my relationship with God faltering, if I haven't been in constant prayer, or my devotionals begin to get a little lax. My spirits sink, knowing I need time with my Lord. It's at these moments when I find myself on my knees, begging for forgiveness. He tenderly reminds me that all is forgiven, and a peace settles within me. He restores my soul. Although these times are when I feel like I have drifted away from the Lord He continues to walk by my side. He leads me in paths of  righteousness. In Him I cannot stumble or fall. I am lifted from the ashes. For Him, with Him, and through Him do I live, to make His name great. 

I desire to spend more time in the Word. I want to read my Bible, having devotions before I go to bed, as well as when I rise every morning. Meditating on His word day and night.
