The 23rd Psalm

This lovely, silver lamb pendant was a precious Christmas gift from my husband, Patrick. I began acquiring little lambs in 2004, my delightful collection a statement of the deepest and most important relationship in my life ...
Jesus Christ is my Shepherd, and I belong to Him, a lamb in His eternal fold. 

Enjoy the wonder of God's love for us, as expressed so eloquently by David in Psalm 23, the King James Version, which is how I memorized these verses as a child:

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.

Love the lamb! I collect items that have joined the lion and and the lamb: The Lion of Judah and the Lamb That Was Slain. I started the collection 20 years ago just after my first husband passed away. ❤️

Thank you, Elaine! I love that you have a similar collection - and how very fascinating you started it after your first husband passed away, too - awesome - a comforting way to deal with grief, I found - sounds the same for you.
Dearest Blessings!
