The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing.
What bold words from David.
I don't know about you, but I would love that to be what I was able to say. That's not my story, however.
In the 23rd Psalm, we see how David is able to get to the spot of saying that he lacks nothing. The surprising, yet comforting, thing is that he finds the peace to say it in the middle of the valleys.
As you receive this blessing today, may you be able to face even the darkest valley - the shadow of death. And in it, may you find way to say that the Lord leads you to a green pasture, where you lack nothing!
