Friendship with God

After reading Kelsey's post on Psalm 23, I started to look at it again for myself. I got to the first verse, and I'm staying there for a while. "The Lord is my Shepherd". In addition to the literal meaning, the word shepherd there (Hebrew ra'ah) refers to companionship or friendship.

I just want to hold that first verse in my heart tonight.

"The Lord is my Closest Friend".
