The LORD is my shepherd,What does a shepherd do? He guides the flock, for starters. He knows where the food is, and how to get from here to there. He knows when it's time to move on, and when to let the flock stop and rest. He watches out for the flock, and protects it from predators.
I shall not want.
God does all these things. He knows what we need (not want, but need), and when we need it. He knows how to get us from here to there, if we'll obey his instructions. He knows when we need to change, and when we need to rest. We are very good at finding trouble, but God will not let it become overpowering. The only thing that can keep us from contentment is ourselves. We may not have what we want, but we will have what we need, according to His plan.
