The Lord is My Shepherd: Living in the Care of the Good Shepherd

“The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.”

With just a few words, Psalm 23 opens a door into the heart of God—revealing not only who He is, but how deeply He desires to care for, guide, and restore His people.

This book was born from a place of personal encounter. There were seasons in my life when I wandered, searching for clarity, comfort, and safety. In those times, I discovered something deeper than religious routine or theological theory—I found a Shepherd. A real, living, present Shepherd who knew my name, understood my fears, and never gave up on leading me home.

Psalm 23 is not merely poetic—it is profoundly prophetic and intensely personal. It speaks to every soul who has ever walked through the valley, faced the threat of lack, felt surrounded by enemies, or longed for a place to belong. In its six short verses, God reveals His heart as Protector, Provider, Healer, Leader, and Friend.

My goal in writing The Lord is My Shepherd is simple: to help you experience the Shepherd, not just study Him. As we walk through each line of this Psalm, my prayer is that your heart will be awakened to the depth of God’s care for you. This book is not just for pastors or theologians—it’s for the weary, the broken, the searching, and the strong who still need leading.
