Psalm 23-A Psalm of David

I have been studying the Psalms in Bible. This is the Psalm of trust. It is one of the most loved Psalm.

Psalm 23

The Divine Shepherd. A Psalm of David.

The Lord is my Shepherd,i shall not want.

He makes me lie down in green pastures;he leads me beside still waters;He restores my soul.

He leads me in the right paths for his names sake.

Even though I walk through the darkest valley I fear no evil;for you are with me; your rod and your staff-they comfort me.

You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and all the days of my life and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord my whole life long.

In this Psalm, David is telling God that he is the lamb and God is the shepherd. God watches over him and makes sure that he is safe. God leads him to the right path. David doesn't have to fear evil because God is with him. He can go through the darkest valley and still have no fear.

When I read this Psalm, I feel safe knowing God is with me too.
