BIG IDEA: Our lives are a shared journey following Christ from infancy through death.
1. The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. The Lord guides, leads, protects us. He keeps us alive and watches over us.
2. He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters. To be a child is to be vulnerable.
3. He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake. God restores my soul… He restores my soul. What does it feel like to be restored… to have your soul restored?
Psalm 23:1-3 reveals that ALL of God’s children are to respond to our heavenly Father in ways that resemble the stage of children… We are to come to God, our heavenly Father needy, trusting, teachable, vulnerable, full of wonder and curiosity… And by doing so, we live humble lives, and also showcase the character of God to be: Sustaining, Patient, Loving, Knowledgeable, Kind, Wise, Protective, Possessive, Marvelous.
