    Psalm 23 is a song of trust written by David, portraying God as both a tender Shepherd and a generous Host. It reminds us that even in our darkest valleys, we are never alone—God walks with us, protects us, and prepares a table of grace in the midst of our enemies. His goodness and mercy don’t just follow us—they pursue us, assuring us that in Him, we are always home.
