I Shall not Want
David Baker
I have been reflecting on the beginning of the twentythird Psalm. ‘The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.’ Psa 23:1. David was a man who believed the Lord would supply all his needs. He could say with confidence, ‘I shall not want’. If you reflect on your life, do you have that faith? Is that your testimony? It can be quite a journey to reach this kind of faith. At times, we all struggle with the fear of lack. We easily become worried or anxious about our basic needs. This type of anxiety has the capacity to grip the heart of every person. Why is this? We all have to negotiate anxiety for provision because the Lord has broken the ‘staff of bread’. This is an interesting theme in the Scriptures.
