  Speaker 1: all passages of Scripture. King David, who wrote the Psalm,
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: grew up and worked as a shepherd, so he knew
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: a lot about pastures and streams and sheep and shepherding.
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: He loved seeing the Lord as a shepherd, and he
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: knew the shepherd's job is to care for you, to
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: make you feel safe, nourished, calm, and peaceful. So whether
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: your life feels peaceful tonight, your Father in Heaven is
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: the good shepherd and is present to love and care
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: for you. Now leave behind today's tasks and worries, and
