Psalm 23:1-6 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. 2He makes me to lie
down in green pastures; He leads me beside still waters. 3He restores my soul;
He leads me in the paths of righteousness for His name’s sake. 4Yea, though I
walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for You are
with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me. 5You prepare a table before
me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; My cup runs
over. 6Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; And I
will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
Psalm 23:2 He makes me lie down in green pastures; he leads me beside
the still waters
● When I make the Lord my Shepherd, He MEETS MY NEEDS.
● Rest comes from trusting Him to watch over, care and provide
for me.
● Jesus gives me PEACE in His PRESENCE.
Matthew 11:28-29 “Come to me, all who are weary and burdened, and I
will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am
gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
Matthew 11:30 For my yoke is easy, my burden is light.
“It is generally recognized as being a very difficult thing to get God’s
people to lie down. They will do almost anything and everything else but
that. They will run, walk, fight, sing, teach, preach, work - in a word - do
almost anything and everything except seek seasons of quiet and periods
of retirement - of secret communion with God and quiet soul nurture.
From the rush into the hush Jesus calls us.” - William Evans
“Sleep is a gift from God... it’s an act of trust: I am reminded when I go to
sleep that the world is in God’s hands, not mine. The world will get along
very well even though I’m not awake to try to control things. At the
appropriate time, my eyes will open I will receive the gift of wakefulness
once again.” - John Ortberg
Isaiah 26:3 You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast,
because he trusts in you.
