Day 2: Psalm 23:1-6 Being thankful for the Lord our shepherd
（Memorization Scripture: vv. 1-6）
1 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2 He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters.
3 He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness For His name’s sake.
4 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.
5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; My cup runs over.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me All the days of my life; And I will dwell in the house of the Lord Forever.

[Sharing] What a glorious message that the Lord is our loving shepherd! Our God is the one who provides us sufficiently in time so that we do not lack anything. He leads us to the green pastures when we are hungry. He guides us to the still waters when we are weary. When we died in sin and transgressions, He restored our souls and leads us in the paths of righteousness. Even though sometimes we do walk through the valley of the shadow of death, we do not have to fear, because the Lord Himself is always with us. He prepares a table before us in the presence of our enemies, so that we can always enjoy His grace regardless of any difficulties. Moreover, He anoints our heads with oil, and our cup runs over. Goodness and mercy follows us throughout our lives all because the amazing God is our great shepherd. Let’s all trust Him, follow His guidance, enjoy His presence, and have the real rest and satisfaction in Him, that is, dwelling in the house of the Lord forever. Let’s give all the praise and thanks to our amazing shepherd!

Day 2 詩篇23:1-6 因著 神是我們的牧者而感恩
（背誦1-6）
1 耶和華是我的牧者，我必不致缺乏。
2 祂使我躺臥在青草地上，領我在可安歇的水邊。
3 祂使我的靈魂甦醒，為自己的名引導我走義路。
4 我雖然行過死蔭的幽谷，也不怕遭害，因為袮與我同在，袮的杖、袮的竿都安慰我。
5 在我敵人面前，袮為我擺設筵席，袮用油膏了我的頭，使我的福杯滿溢。
6 我一生一世必有恩惠、慈愛隨著我，我且要住在耶和華的殿中，直到永遠。

【心得分享】何等榮耀的信息，這位耶和華 神竟然是愛我的牧者。耶和華是一位及時供應我們的 神，因此我們一無缺乏。在我們飢餓無力的時候，祂領我們到豐盛的青草地；在我們疲乏困倦的時候，祂領我們到可安歇的水邊；在我們死在罪惡過犯中的時候，祂使我們的靈魂甦醒，引導我們一生走義路；有時雖然經過死蔭的幽谷，也不怕遭害，因為耶和華 神親自與我們同在；在敵人面前，祂為我們擺設筵席，使我們享恩如恆，且用油膏我們的頭，使我們的福杯滿溢。因著這位偉大的牧者，我們的一生都有恩惠慈愛來伴隨我們。就讓我們都來信靠祂，跟隨祂的帶領，享受祂的同在, 從祂得著真正的安息與滿足 - 住在耶和華的殿中，直到永遠！ 感謝讚美這位偉大的牧者！
