Taxes! It has been said that the only things that are certain in life are death and taxes. And with the way many people fell about taxes, death may be preferable. But there is something else that we can be certain about. God’s love and care for us. As we looked at the 23rd Psalm, we can clearly see how much God watches over his people. And this continues with Jesus in the New Testament. His love and faithfulness will never cease, so let’s celebrate that today by reading once again those familiar words. “The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he restores my soul. He guides me in paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, 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 goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.”
