Psalm 23
1 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2 He makes me to lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside the still waters.
3 He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness for His name’s sake.
4 Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil;
For You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
You anoint my head with oil; My cup runs over.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life;
And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
Verse 4 Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; For You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
The Rod & Staff - 'they comfort me'
We could say - the rod for defence, the staff for help.
"The scriptures were not given to increase our knowledge but to change our lives" - D.L Moody
Consider: Does the Word still penetrate your inner most being? Does the Word correct, sharpen and strengthen you?
I can boldly say, I am under the expert management, and compassionate, tender care of the Good Shepherd!
