Life Without Lack: Living in the Fullness of Psalm 23

by Dallas Willard

One of our greatest needs today is for people to really see and really believe the things they already profess to see and believe. Knowing about things—knowing what they are, being able to identify them and say them—does not mean we actually believe them. When we truly believe what we profess, we are set to act as if it were true. Acting as if things are true means, in turn, that we live as if they were so.

Memorization is an essential element of a life without lack. It is a primary way we fill our minds with the Word of God and have our thoughts formed by God’s thoughts.

Unlimited in resources, just as he is unlimited in love, he is the Good Shepherd who generously provides for our every need.

A joyous God fills the universe. Joy is the ultimate word describing God and his world.
