My Take On the 23rd Psalm

The Lord is my Shepherd
THAT'S RELATIONSHIP!
I shall not want
THAT'S SUPPLY!
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures
THAT'S REST!
He leadeth me beside still waters
THAT'S REFRESHMENT!
He restoreth my soul
THAT'S HEALING!
He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness
THAT'S GUIDANCE!
For His name sake
THAT'S PURPOSE!
Yea, though I walk through
the valley of the shadow of death
THAT'S TESTING!
I will fear no evil
THAT'S PROTECTION!
For thou art with me
THAT'S FAITHFULNESS!
Thy rod and thy staff they comfort me
THAT'S DISCIPLINE!
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies
THAT'S HOPE!
Thou anointest my head with oil
THAT'S CONSECRATION!
My cup runneth over
THAT'S ABUNDANCE!
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life
THAT'S BLESSING!
And I will dwell in the house of the Lord
THAT'S SECURITY!
Forever
THAT'S ETERNITY!

One of the best books I ever read was, Phillip Keller's 23rd Psalm, a wonderful book, if you ever get a chance pick it up and read it.
