    Text: Psalm 23
    I. Introduction:
    The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.” With that single line, David opens a window into the heart of God. Psalm 23 is not a psalm about a trouble‑free life; it is a psalm about a faithful God who walks with us through every season. The goodness of God is not theoretical—it is personal, practical, and deeply present.
    II. Read the Text
    Psalm 23 KJV 1900
    A Psalm of David. The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: He leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; Thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: Thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: And I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.
    III. God’s Goodness Provides
    Psalm 23:1 KJV 1900

    B. My Shepherd - to shepherd v. — to tend as a shepherd, as of sheep or goats.

    V. God’s Goodness Restores
    Psalm 23:3 KJV 1900

    A. to restore v. — to bring back into original existence, use, function, or position.
    B. inner self n. — the part of a person (or animal) that thinks, feels, wills, and desires; perhaps an extension of the literal meaning throat.
