"Psalm 23" Reality Check - Carl Lentz - Hillsong Conference 2014

we all need a shepherd.
God is our shepherd (we are sheep).

chase the Shepherd

john 10

sheep don't strive

there is security in the Shepherd

Jesus is your security. the world around you can be shaky but He remains steady

what the Good Shepherd always do:

1. He corrects (when you are tempted to wander)

hebrews 12:5-8 
And have you forgotten the exhortation addressed to you as sons? "My son, do not scorn the Lord's discipline or give up when he corrects you. "For the Lord disciplines the one he loves and chastises every son he accepts." Endure your suffering as discipline; God is treating you as sons. For what son is there that a father does notBut if you do not experience discipline, something all sons have shared in, then you are illegitimate and are not sons.

know that God loves u, and He is going to correct you

God might correct you in the little thing to save u from a bigger disaster

fight over sensitivity 

2. He protects (wherever you go, whatever you do)

He is a protector

God's hands of protection will be over you

He protects you from the things that you dont even know need protecting

when u know that God is protecting u, u will be able to live with no fear
