Faithful Shepherd – Psalm 23 – Draw Bible Stories Project

Faithful Shepherd Song (Psalm 23)

Devoted Protector – crown, rod & staff – David wrote a worship song about God as our Caregiver. God is like a Good Shepherd. He faithfully guides and provides.

Refreshed Disciple – praising woman – God knows how tired and discouraged we get. He leads us to safe, peaceful places where we can rest and be renewed.

Suffering Seasons – valley & flames – We will experience much trouble and face death. We have no fear, for our Shepherd guides us through every trial.

Perpetual Overflow – cup & water – God nurtures abundant life. He protects us from our enemies. He blesses us. He makes a special place for us in heaven.
