Reflection

Drawing from the hymns like “Savior, Like a Shepherd Lead Us” (inspired by Psalm 23), the service reminded us of God’s loving leadership. “He leads me beside still waters” from Psalm 23:2 echoed in the special music, inviting us to find rest and strength in the Lord amidst life’s busyness.
