the Shepherds job is to guide and protect the sheep....David is reminding us here that the Great Shepherd will give us no reason to fear evil.....the Hebrew word here for evil means various things: adversity, affliction, calamity, displeasure, misery, wretchedness, wrong amongst others.....Because the Lord is my Shepherd, I have no reason to fear any of these things! The mind is a funny thing....if you tell yourself you are scared to death of________, chances are your brain starts firing off neurons [the old survival instinct] and you become afraid....if you aren't careful this situation can consume you.....we need to engulf our minds with the Word of God....Let His Word be our guide....Let His Word affect our thoughts and feelings.....I will NOT fear! God wouldn't ask us to do something we aren't able....let us keep that in mind next time we find ourselves in a dark valley! God bless you this fine day!
