—Psalm 23
by: Jennifer Lewis Berg.
How many times have we been afraid, leading us to bring up the words of this psalm from deep within us? There is a tremendous peace in the mental picture of green pastures, still waters, and paths of righteousness. These words truly do restore the soul. No matter what we face (and “the valley of the shadow of death” is right up there with things to fear), God is with us. His weapons will comfort and protect us from all our fears. It is compelling to know that by dwelling in God’s presence, our lives will overflow with his mercy and love, forever.
