HIS NAME 14


ROHI THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD

Jesus is the good shepherd 
who lays down HIS life for all people.

The Lord protects, provides, directs, leads and cares for HIS people.  

God tenderly takes care of us as a strong and patient shepherd.

"The LORD is my shepherd;
I shall not want.
He makes me to lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside the still waters. He restores my soul;
He leads me in the paths of righteousness
For His name’s sake.
Yea, 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.
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
You anoint my head with oil;
My cup runs over.
Surely 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 NKJV
