Psalm 23


The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want.

He makes me lie down in green pastures,
he leads me beside quiet waters,

he restores my soul.
He guides me in paths of righteousness
for his name's sake.

Even though I walk
through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.

You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.

Surely goodness and love will follow me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the LORD
forever.

I love this Psalm. I am so excited for this Sunday as Thomas and Stephen are going to share what God has been teaching them about what it means to have a God is acts like a shepherd.

I could go on and on about how this Psalm has ministered to me, I would love to hear what words or phrases encourage you in Psalm23. E-mail me at gary@calvarybible.com with the way the Word speaks to your heart.
