Our Lord Leads Us, Powerfully Restoring and Refreshing Our Life
God brings healing and peace back to our lives.
This article takes us deeper into King David’s wondrous and beautiful twenty-third Psalm.
I pray you receive as much love, strength and comfort from God in this hymn as I.
“He restores my soul.” (Psalm 23:3, ESV)
Four simple, yet empowering words from our Father. We are blessed because our Lord is with us always.
… the LORD God, even my God, is with you. He will not leave you or forsake you, (1 Chronicles 28:20b, ESV)
We each have a God who loves us so. He promises never to leave us.
King David, as he penned this uplifting hymn to God. Recalled his boyhood years spent in contentment as a shepherd boy. It wasn’t an easy life for this youth. Tending and caring for his helpless and defenseless flock out in the wilderness. David needed constant alertness. For wolves were always looking for a free and easy meal. He was so familiar with the flock in his charge. David knew each one personally by name.
David, the good and caring shepherd boy. Instantly knew when one of his flock was missing. Leaving the remaining sheep in the care of his workers. He went in search. Not returning until, in his arms, was the missing sheep.
