I Will Fear No Evil
The
Lord is my shepherd, I lack
nothing. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet
waters, he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name’s
sake. Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will 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 your goodness and love will follow me all
the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the Lord
forever.
Psalm
23: 1-6
The
prophet Isaiah reminded God’s people of His unfailing love and concern for
them, even though they had often turned away from Him. The Lord said, “Do not
fear, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine.
God
never forgets us. No matter where we are or whatever our situation, He knows
our names and holds us fast in His unfailing love.
God
knows our names and He holds us fast in His love.
