    The 23rd Psalm

    Our pastor preached the last two Sundays on the 23rd Psalm. One of the points he made impressed me. He asked, what would life be like in the opposite of the Psalm.

    The Lord is NOT my shepherd, I shall be in want
    I won't lie down in green pastures
    My soul will NOT be restored
    I will not have straight paths
    When I walk through the valley of deep darkness I WILL fear evil, for I am alone
    I will have no comfort in that fear
    I will not have peace amid my enemies
    I will not be refreshed
    I will be left wanting
    And I shall dwell outside God's kingdom forever

    That is life without the Shepherd.

    Do you have the Shepherd?

    There is no 'right' that requires me to work for you or you to work for me!

    Wayne,

    Excellent post. At my last church service I preached on the 27th Psalm. For all my life so far, the 27th spoke for me.
    Be well.

    Adam

    Very interesting to think about… Praise God I don’t really gotta worry bout that.
    Any technology not understood, can seem like Magic!!!

    I will love the Lord with all my heart, all my soul, and all my mind.
