The Lord is my Shepherd

Scripture:

Psalm 23


Observation:

God is like a Shepherd, Who leads, guides, comforts, and protects His sheep!


Application:

This is a well-known Psalm, and it is often glossed over due to the familiarity we have with it. So today, let me challenge you to take some time to meditate on this Psalm.

Picture in your mind the green pastures. Pretend you are actually standing in them. What do you see? Hear? Smell? Feel? Taste? Picture the still waters. If you were there, what would you see? Hear? Smell? Feel? Taste? Imagine the comfort of Jesus being right beside you in “the valley of the shadow of death.” Feel the comfort. Continue in this way through the remainder of the Psalm.

Rest in the comfort and protection of the Shepherd!


Prayer:

Thank You, Father, for your leading, guidance, comfort and protection! Thank You for the security Your children have in You!
