He Restores My Soul

Good morning,

He Restores My Soul…

Today, let’s discover the restful peace our Shepherd provides in life’s chaos.

He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters.
Psalm 23:2

Imagine being led to a place where your soul can breathe, where the noise of life fades, and you feel completely at peace. That’s the picture Psalm 23:2 paints. God doesn’t just provide physical rest; He restores our souls in ways nothing else can.

In a world constantly pushing us to do more and be more, God calls us to simply be still. He leads us to “green pastures”—a symbol of abundance and peace—and “quiet waters” where our spirits are refreshed. This isn’t a reward for being strong or having it all together. It’s a gift from a loving Shepherd who knows exactly what we need, even when we don’t.

Today, take a moment to pause. Rest in the truth that you don’t have to carry everything on your own. God is inviting you to find peace and restoration in His presence. Let Him guide you to those quiet waters, where your soul can be renewed.

Dear Lord, My soul longs for some quiet time with You. Help me find moments of stillness and surrender my worries at Your feet. Guide me to those peaceful places where my spirit can rest. Deep down, I trust in Your perfect plan for me, even when the path seems uncertain. Lead me to that place of rest and renewal, where I can truly recharge. Thank you for being my Shepherd and for always knowing what’s best for me. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

We need to find God, and he can not be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature – trees, flowers, grass- grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence… We need silence to be able to touch souls.

Walk daily with God at your side!

Love always,

Ed 🙏🏼
