A Former Shepherd Wrote Six Lines That Have Carried Three Thousand Years of Grief

Psalms 23 8.4B
6 LINES

King David, who'd actually been a shepherd, wrote down what it felt like to be the sheep. 'The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.'

Green pastures. Still waters. Restored soul. A table set in front of enemies. A cup that overflows. Goodness and mercy chasing you down.

Six verses. Memorized at funerals, whispered in hospital rooms, tattooed on forearms, said over kids at bedtime. Still doing the job 3,000 years later.
