The Lord Is My Shepherd

Calling the Lord our Shepherd acknowledges dependence. Sheep do not lead themselves—they follow. David’s confidence rested not in abundance, but in God’s care. When the Shepherd leads, lack loses its power.

Often, feelings of lack come from fear rather than reality. Walking with God means trusting His provision and guidance. God knows the needs of His people and faithfully provides according to His wisdom.

Where God leads, He sustains.
