What does Psalm 23 mean to you?
It’s a psalm of God’s protection, care and provision. Sometimes we can slide into feeling like we can provide for ourselves. Sometimes we’re too proud or too distracted to realize how desperately we need God as our provider.
The Lord is our shepherd. Sheep need a shepherd.
The Lord is my shepherd. This is a personal relationship. God is available to us every day through prayer and scripture.
I shall not want. God sometimes surprises us by providing exactly what we need for all the crises we face. Jesus gives us meaning, a calling, a destination, a family, peace, and rest - our yoke is easy and our burden is light (Matthew 11:28-30).
He maketh me lie down in green pastures. We don’t like to be made to do things, but sometimes we don’t even know what we need. God provides what is essential for us even when we don’t know what we need.
He restoreth my soul. We have so many opportunities today to abuse our souls. Today, we can live our lives almost completely alone. Our screens and algorithms can fill our minds with outrage, violence, and negativity, but we are called to think on what is honorable and true (Philippians 4:8). Instead of brain rot, we need restoration for our souls. Green pastures. Quiet waters. God wants to restore your soul.
