Summary
David's Psalm 23 presents God as the perfect shepherd and leader who provides daily needs, protects through suffering, and leads toward eternal victory. The sermon challenges listeners to fully submit leadership of their lives to Christ rather than treating God as merely advisory counsel.
Highlights
God is not interested in being fitted into your life. He's inviting you to fit in with his life. He's inviting you to join his flock. He's inviting you to follow him.
Worry is dealing with tomorrow's problems with today's pastures. In the desert you learn that the shepherd will get you what you need right now and then 10 minutes later he'll get you what you need then.
You can be in the darkest moments of your life and you cannot be afraid and not be alone because Jesus walked it too. Every pain you've experienced, he's had it too.
