    Questions about Psalm 23:3

    What does it mean that the shepherd restores my soul in Psalm 23:3?

    October 30, 2026 reads Psalm 23:3: the Lord is my shepherd; he restores my soul. The restoring is his work on what is worn down inside you, not only on what a doctor can measure.

    Say, restore my soul, and lead me because I am too tired to pick the path. Then take the next right step he puts in front of you, even a small one.
