Psalm 23:1–"The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want."
The reality of this verse is that it speaks so dimply about theology so profound. So much of Scripture presents this very relationship, that of the shepherd and the sheep. The point of defining the relationship that the Lord has with His people this way is that it sheds significant light into how well God knows us and the way that He cares for us. It is a beautiful thing to remember that God so loves us as a shepherd loves his sheep; He protects us from predators as a shepherd; He leads us to green pastures and cool, still waters as a shepherd leads his sheep. Because of all this, we should not forget who He is and who we are before Him. And praise the Lord, the good Shepherd!
