Day 19: Thanksgiving Month

Right now, I'm living and holding on to "The Lord is my shepherd" for a bit.  "I shall not be in want".   Various versions say things like "I lack no good thing" or "I lack nothing".  The Message says "I don't need a thing."

pause.   repeat.    meditate.

I find so much peace, comfort, and contentment knowing that all I must do is graze like a sheep in the pasture that my shepherd puts me in.  Wherever that pasture may be, I eat.  Yes, sometimes I poop too... and usually it's not pretty when I have a poopy attitude.  But mostly I eat.  I should not worry about a thing for my shepherd keeps watch.  He plans my ways, He guards my steps, and when I'm dirty he washes me.  Sometimes I'm so dirty or there's a knot so big that he must sheer me too.  But even the sheering is for my good.  Sometimes that discarded wool can be used for good too!!

270.  Waking up to find that my 4th attempt at sourdough starter seems to be viable.  I'm still holding out hope that, yes, those bubbles and foam, and sour yeasty smell might actually mean I DID IT!!  (crosses fingers)
271.  It's haircut day!!
272.  Leftover soup for lunch today.  One of my best homemade soups yet... God is good!
273.  Handsome... can I really only have his name on here once?  nope,  he's one of God's richest blessings on me and I choose to continually remember that.  Stay tuned!  You'll see his name on here a few more times before I'm through.
