Scripture
Psalm 23
The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake. Even though I walk through the darkest valley, 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 overflows. Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
Observation
H8286 רָעָה1 rāʽâ1, to be a shepherd, to care for flocks, graze; by extension: to rule, with a focus on care and concern
Application
Dr Dobson and his wife have made it a habit to leave the simple note for each other, “SHMILY”. It stands for See How Much I Love You. My husband and I heard that over 10 years ago and added the tradition to our life together. To me, Psalm 23 reads like SHMILY between God and David. David is reciting all the ways God shows His love everyday to us. So, what I want you to do today is look at all those “little” things and smile back at God and tell him SHMILY too!
