The Lord's Presence

Psalm 23

There is nothing more wonderful than recognizing and feeling God’s presence. When we look to Him in any situation, whether painful or happy, we can know the deep satisfaction of His provision. Jesus declared himself to be our good shepherd – the kind that will do anything to protect us (John 10:11). He says that His whole purpose is to give us “a rich and satisfying life” (John 10:10). Rest is this truth every day! 

Questions for further thought:
1. What is your “dark valley?” Can/did you feel Him close beside you?
2. What are the “green meadows” and “peaceful streams” in your life?  

​Challenge: List the blessings that your “cup overflows” with. Write them all down on paper and don’t stop until you can’t think of one more!
