“Come, let us worship and bow down;
Let us kneel before the LORD our Maker.
For He is our God,
And we are the people of His pasture, and the sheep of His hand.”
Psalm 95:6-7

Who is the shepherd of this fold of which we are apart?  Jesus tells us in His own words in Chapter 10 of the Gospel of John.
“I am the good shepherd; and I know My own, and my own know Me, 
even as the Father knows Me and I know the Father; I lay down My life for the sheep.  Vs. 14-15
My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they know Me;
And I give eternal life to them, and they shall never perish; and no one shall snatch them out of My hand.
My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father’s hand.
I and the Father are one.”  Vs. 27-30

Believers, knowing these things we trustingly, confidentially, joyfully, thankfully say with the Psalmist, David, 
“The LORD is my shepherd.”  Psalm 23:1
And when we come verse 4 our trust and confidence, yes, and our joy do not fail us!  For He is with us and we are ONLY walking through the valley not staying.  Hallelujah.  (My emphasis)

Praise to our wonderful and gracious Lord, He who does all things perfectly is in charge and we rest in Him.  So let us worship Him with joyful hearts and with songs of praise and honor.

We look to Psalm 95 once again--
“O come, let us sing for joy to the LORD;
Let us shout joyfully to the rock of our salvation.
Let us come before His presence with thanksgiving,
Let us shout joyfully to Him with psalms.
For the LORD is a great God,
And a great King over all gods.”  Vs. 1-3

All praise, honor and glory to our mighty God and Savior!  Amen
