A favorite psalm of many is the 23 psalm, often referred to as the shepherd's psalm. many things can be brought out of this psalm, but as I was reading it, the idea of a picnic came to mind.
The great shepherd not only satisfies and sanctifies his flock,supporting them in their valleys of fear;he supplies them with a picnic along the way!
Our great shepherd lays a table before us in the very presence of our enemies. Imagine how He covers a table in the dark valley with a white cloth, finding a wide leaf for a plate, and picking some lovely green blades of grass for His jumpy lambs. By the time the lamb (that's you and me) have eaten its fill, he will have had its hear anointed with the oil of gladness, and his cup of joy will over flow.
Do you need a picnic today? Jesus is waiting.....
