Giving Thanks for The Good Shepherd
Psalms 23
David, the shepherd boy turned king, writes from his understanding of God as a shepherd would see the care of the sheep. The scripture often speaks of followers of God as sheep who need constant care and provision. We give thanks today for our Good Shepherd.
The Lord is my shepherd… Perfect Salvation
I shall not want … Perfect Satisfaction
He makes me lie down in green pastures ...Perfect Rest
He leads me beside still waters... Perfect Refreshment
He restores my soul... Perfect Peace
He leads me in paths of righteousness for His name's sake... Perfect Guidance
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death... Perfect Understanding
I will fear no evil … Perfect Protection
For You are with me… Perfect Presence
Your rod and Your staff they comfort me… Perfect Comfort
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies… Perfect Provision
You anoint my head with oil … Perfect Healing
My cup overflows… Perfect Joy
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my
life… Perfect Care
And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever… Perfect Destiny
