C.S. Lewis called joy “An unsatisfied desire which is itself more desirable than any other satisfaction.” Deep down we want to be joy-filled people and the Bible defines and prescribes a kind of joy that can be realized no matter what circumstances we are facing.
The Lord is My Shepherd
What does it mean for the Lord to be our Shepherd? According to David in Psalm 23, it means that we shall never be in want of anything. We will be made to slow down, quiet down, and sit down. Our souls will be restored and whole, like they were designed to be from the beginning. We shall not fear evil or death – no matter what we’re facing. Many of us know the Psalm… Let’s make sure we know the Shepherd.
