reflections on Psalm 23
no 3

He guides me in the paths of righteouness.

A notice, Guide Wanted, is the start of an understanding.
Money aside, the true cost of this deal is that the person to be guided admits to a need.
Accepting guidance leads to trust and dependence.

The man who wrote Psalm 23 was no whimp, he was a warrior-herdsman.
This is not about the intellect or physical prowess, it relates to the will.
Righteouness is goodness.

Good Shepherd, I need help here, take me into goodness.
