Our Shepherd

OUR SHEPHERD
 
23RD PSALM
 
The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
 
2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
 
3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.
 
4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
 
5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth 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 for ever.
 
This Psalm is an invitation to us all to follow the Shepherd. As we begin a new year there is no better course to take than that of a sheep led by Jesus, the Good Shepherd. If we follow Him our entire year will be a year of great promise.
