Word

• The scripture for today’s lesson is probably one of the favourite Psalms.  Do you have a favourite verse in the Bible? What is it and why is it important?
• Read Psalm 23
• What does it mean that the “Lord is my shepherd”?  How does it feel to be compared to a sheep?
• We live in a very consumerism-oriented society, what does it truly mean to “not want” of “lack nothing”?
• What stands out to you in verses 2-3, “He makes me lie down in green pastures,
• he leads me beside quiet waters, he refreshes my soul.  He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake.”?
• Have you ever felt like you were, “walking through the valley of the shadow of death”?  What were the circumstances?  Did you experience God’s presence during It?
• The Psalmist talks about the Shepherds rod and staff.  God disciplines those he loves.  How do we view trouble and hardship?
• What stands out to you in verses 5-6, “You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.”
• What did you need to hear and apply to your life from this scripture?
