Only a man’s ego has the audacity to imagine it is in control.

To love means to become one with the object of your love.

I attended a funeral of a friend the other day, and the memorial card that was given out had the 23 rd Psalm inside the cover.
My mind locked on to the second statement, “I shall not want”.

In the context of this Psalm it is saying that there is no need to want for anything, that everything you need will be provided.
The key word here is ‘need’, not what we think of today as “want, (as in I want a Cadillac).

God knows our needs for our spiritual development much better than we do. He does not confuse our needs with the wants of our egos.

Acceptance is the answer.
