Want
“The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.” This familiar opening of Psalm 23 contrasts starkly with the want all around us, and perhaps in us. What do you want? What have you thought about, worked for, and longed for in 2020? The Hebrew construct expressing “I shall not want” (or “I will not […]
