“Look at who my shepherd is—my owner—my manager!” The Lord is! After all, he knew from firsthand experience that the lot in life of any particular sheep depended on the type of man who owned it. Some men were gentle, kind, intelligent, brave, and selfless in their devotion to their stock. Under one man sheep would struggle, starve, and suffer endless hardship. In another’s care they would flourish and thrive contentedly.
The Lord is my shepherd is a statement thst defines the character of God, and highlights our sense of belonging to him. It is a statement of surrender and trust
