More Humility / More Surrender

I could humble myself more day by day. I could lay down my pride and surrender my will more fully to the Good Shepherd.

My Shepherd

Jesus the risen Lord
Is my pastor (shepherd).
I lack nothing.
He leads me.
He refreshes me.
He guides me.
He stays with me.
He comforts me.
He anoints me.
He lives, works, and
Speaks within me.
I overflow
With the fruit
Of His Spirit.

Where there’s humility
There’s tranquility
And civility.
Where there is pride
There’s accusation
And hostility.
“God resists the proud
But gives grace
To the humble.”

Here’s the simplified guide to an amazing life: Continually listen to, follow, and obey the living resurrected Jesus Christ.

We live in an age of deception. We need the Good Shepherd to lead us to truth. The left has left truth behind and superseded it with a person’s feelings and desires. The right has replaced truth with self-righteous assumptions, assertions, accusations, and allegations.

About Steve Simms

I like to look and think outside the box. In college I encountered Jesus Christ and I have been passionate about trying to get to know Him better ever since. My wife and I long to see the power and passion of the first Christ-followers come to life in our time. I have written a book about our experiences in non-traditional church, called, "Beyond Church: An Invitation To Experience The Lost Word Of The Bible--Ekklesia." If you need encouragement, search for: Elephants Encouraging The Room and/or check out my Amazon author page. Thank you!
