Psalm 23:4 says that the shepherd’s rod and staff bring comfort. These were not random objects. The staff, with its curve, guided sheep when they wandered into danger. The rod, a strong club, protected the flock by driving away predators. One corrected mistakes made by the sheep, while the other defended them from outside threats.
For David, both were signs of safety, and the same is true for us. Living under God’s care means His hand reaches into our struggles, whether they come from our own choices or from enemies around us. Because of this, we should not push back when God disciplines us. His correction is for our good, and His protection is certain.
What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who is against us?
Romans 8:31
