Psalm 23 is one of the most well-known psalms. If you grew up in Sunday school, every verse was a memory verse and when you hear the start of verse 1 – ‘The Lord is my shepherd’ – for some, the rest of the psalm just rolls off the tongue because it’s so familiar. However, we all know that familiarity sometimes brings loss of meaning. As we dissect this psalm verse by verse in this plan, we pray that it won’t just be familiar but that it will take on new depth and new meaning in your life.

Grief is something we will all experience in this lifetime. The word grief is often used to describe the emotion of deep sorrow felt when someone we love has died.

I hope this plan may be a starting point for you as we look at some verses from the Bible and share some reflections.
