THE SHEPHERD / MY COUNTENANCE / WATER, OIL, OINTMENT



THE SHEPHERD'S POWER


"He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: He leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His name's sake. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: Thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over."


(Psalm 23)

"I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth His life for the sheep."


(John ch.10)

"Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise Him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God."


(Psalm 42)

"And she said, Let thine handmaid find grace in thy sight. So the woman went her way, and did eat, and her countenance was no more sad."
