A Word to Comfort You!

I am just posting a Scripture that has brought me real comfort this past couple of weeks. So many things have been coming at us from all directions but yet God in His Mercy and His Word has brought us real peace. Verse 1. How reassuring that God is our Shepherd.. that He does guide us, He protects us and provides comfort.. and we shall not lack. That means we won't go without. In the natural, things look like lack to a lot of us. But God can provide in an instant! We just need to trust Him day by day! I hope it encourages you and speaks refreshment and love into your heart!


Psalm 23

A Psalm of David.

1THE LORD is my Shepherd [to feed, guide, and shield me], I shall not lack.
2He makes me lie down in [fresh, tender] green pastures; He leads me beside the still and restful waters.(A)

3He refreshes and restores my life (my self); He leads me in the paths of righteousness [uprightness and right standing with Him--not for my earning it, but] for His name's sake.

4Yes, though I walk through the [deep, sunless] valley of the shadow of death, I will fear or dread no evil, for You are with me; Your rod [to protect] and Your staff [to guide], they comfort me.

5You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with [a]oil; my [brimming] cup runs over.

6Surely or only goodness, mercy, and unfailing love shall follow me all the days of my life, and through the length of my days the house of the Lord [and His presence] shall be my dwelling place.

Bless you!!
