Psalms 23... the psalm that I'm betting most every person in America has heard, even the atheists. This is the one they say at funerals on TV shows and in the movies. Now I want to revisit this psalm with you and look at some of the ramifications of it.
Psalms 23:1 The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
By definition want means to lack something. If we look at the role of a shepherd with sheep, the shepherd is the caretaker of the sheep. He looks after them, feeds, them, protects them, and helps them when they're in need. Here we see God is our shepherd, and he will make it so that we shall not be left wanting for those things we need.
