Family Matters

DAY 9 OF 28

When it comes to our family, it’s easy to look at everyone else’s family and think they have it better. They live in a bigger house, drive a better car, go on better vacations, have better phones, and more gaming systems. Nothing can make us feel more like we are lacking, then looking around at what others have. This is why this psalm, written by David, is so helpful. With God as our shepherd, with God looking out for us, we don’t lack anything. Sure, we may not always have what we want or, as much as other families have, but this verse reminds us that we have God. And God will take care of us. 

God is with us and for our families. Take a minute and reach out to someone in your family to tell them how grateful you are for them.
