Follow Me, Slowly
Follow Me, Slowly
Breathe.
Slow down.
Be a sheep.
Follow the Shepherd.
Go into your day slowly,
intentionally.
Be aware of following God.
Not running ahead.
No frantic racing.
Trusting Him to lead.
Breathing.
Slowing down.
Letting go of anxious thoughts.
The Shepherd knows the way.
He has your best interests at heart.
Today if you find yourself rushing,
come back to this exercise.
Breathe.
Slow down.
Be a sheep.
Let God lead you.
Slowly.

John Ortberg
Psalm 23 does not say,
“The Lord is my shepherd,
therefore I gotta run faster.”
Shepherds rarely run.
Good ones anyway.
***
Psalm 23:1
The Lord is my shepherd,
I shall not be in want.
