“The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing.”
— Psalm 23:1 (NIV)
Reflection on Today’s Verse
Psalm 23:1 beautifully portrays God as our Shepherd, guiding and providing for His people with care and love. The imagery of a shepherd reflects protection, provision, and personal attention to every need. When David says, “I lack nothing,” he acknowledges that with God as his shepherd, every essential need is met.
In a world where we often strive to fill voids with material possessions or achievements, this verse reminds us that true contentment is found in the Lord. When we trust Him as our Shepherd, He leads us to what is truly good and necessary for our lives. This verse invites us to rest in the assurance of God’s abundant care.
Personal Prayer
Dear Lord,
Thank You for being my Shepherd and for meeting all my needs. Help me to trust in Your guidance and provision, knowing that I lack nothing when I am in Your care. Teach me to rest in Your presence and find contentment in You alone. Amen.
