1. He provides rest in the pasture
Verses 2-3
The Lord is the one taking the action (making us, leading us and refreshing us) not ourselves.
Can you remember a time when you felt an unexplainable sense of peace and rest?
In what ways are do you try to refresh your own soul when you’re tired or stressed?
Where are you tempted to think you know better than God what you need?
2. He provides comfort in the darkness
Verse 4 / Read John 10:11-18
The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.
How does this passage from John 10 frame the way we read and understand Psalm 23:4?
What is this comfort that God provides for us?
How does knowing this comfort change the way we approach our grief, pain, and suffering?
3. He provides a home in eternity
Verse 6
All who put their trust in Jesus are welcomed into his presence forever.
How much time do you spend thinking about the difference Jesus makes to your life in this age (right here, right now), compared to thinking about the difference he makes in the age to come (eternity)?
What would look different in your life if you spent more time thinking about your home in eternity with Jesus?
