A PSALM OF DAVID (PSALM 23)

” The Lord is my shepherd; I have all that I need. He lets me rest in green meadows; he leads me beside peaceful streams. He renews my strength, He guides me along right paths, bringing honor to his name. Even when I walk through the darkest valley, I will not be afraid, for you are close beside me. Your rod and your staff protect and comfort me. You prepare a feast for me in the presence of my enemies. You honor me anointing my head with oil. My cup overflows with blessings. Surely your goodness and unfailing love will pursue me all the days of my life, and I will live in the house of the Lord forever.” Psalm 23:1-6

I have read this passage for many years. I have read it over and over again, but sometimes it became just words in my head. Psalm 23 is a calming message for us all. It is one that takes us to another level with our Lord God. It is soothing and unrestricting. If we just take time to read and dwell upon it, we will be comforted by the gentle sound of its loving message. We all go through struggles just as David did and we all have a God in heaven who is by our side to help us through. He never leaves us nor does let go through more than we can handle. He gives us rest, strength, guidance, protection, blessings and comfort. If we just pursue him, we will live in the house of the Lord forever.

PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THNGS!
