Revelation 7:  17 For the Lamb at the center of the throne
    will be their shepherd;
‘he will lead them to springs of living water.’[b]
    ‘And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.’[c]

The speaker tells about those whose robes were made white by the blood of the lamb.  They have suffered, but their suffering is over now.  I like the image of the springs of living water and no more tears.

"The Lord is my shepherd" is my go-to verse for sleepless nights.  I want a shepherd who knows my needs and fulfills them.  He knows that I need rest and water; he comforts me when I am troubled.
I would be especially glad for this shepherd in the midst of the Apocalypse of Revelation!

Prayer:  Lord, I am thankful for Your loving guidance; for Your attention to my needs; for Your strength when I am weak.  I kneel before Your throne and praise Your mighty name!
Amen
