The Lord is My Sherpa.

Lord, you are my Sherpa, my mountain guide. I don’t need to worry. You set up the tents and cook food for me. You guide me onto the right trails. You have an excellent reputation.


You make sure we have clean water; you let us rest when we feel we can’t go on. You know how to navigate a mountain; I would get lost without you.


Even when we are climbing steep cliffs, and the wind is blowing, I am not afraid because you are with me. Your ropes and spikes make me safe. When we reach the top, we will feast and celebrate. 


Some said I would fail, but with you by my side, I didn’t. Your lessons will follow me all the days of my life. I will never forget you.

Psalm 23 (In my own words.)
