Verse 23:4 - Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for you are with me, they rod and they staff they comfort me.
David knew that we all go through valleys and huge
disappointments. Having God with us
makes it easier to pass through bad situations.
David the shepherd would have carried a rod & staff. The rod is used to scare off unwanted animals
because sheep cannot defend themselves as they have no claws or vicious teeth.
The staff is about 8 feet long to help the sheep that would lose their footing
on the sides of the mountain. The shepherd would reach down with their staff and lift the
sheep back onto the pathway. David knew
that by following God's word he would always be back on the right path.
