Welcome to First United Methodist Church 

of Michigan City

 

Dave Johnson stepped out of his comfort zone and was inspired to write the following....I thought I would share it with you today. 

 

Have a blessed week, John VW

 

The Shepherd Tends to His Flock

The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want...
Unless needless circumstances interfere!
What would cause such turmoil to bend my dependence
on the one who delivers my peace and tranquility?
The Shepherd must tend to his flock without straying too far away.
Who would cause any stress, in a world full of anger,
for the Shepherd who wills the Peace of the Lord?
Christian beliefs are bedrock to most
but fleeting to those who would
ruin the blessed love in our Group of believers.

How can they live with themselves?
So, love and respect are endless for
he who fends off the nabobs of doom.
And blessed is He who taught us to pray
 while inviting us to his great room.
