“He makes me lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside quiet waters. He restores my soul; He guides me in the paths of righteousness For His name’s sake. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil, for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.”
Psalms 23:2-4
We can’t be stubborn and hope get anywhere with the Lord. We can trust that He is taking us somewhere we should be.
“But the quiet waters are on the other side of rough turbulent waters.
The path of righteousness looks uncomfortable and terrifying and I really don’t like the other people on it.
The valley of the shadow of death looks creepy why would Gods take me there?
No I’ll stay here… where I’m in control.”
