A Wrong Quote, A Good Statement
In his beautiful book, I Shall Not Want, Robert Ketchum tells
of a Sunday school teacher who asked her group of children if
any of them could quote the entire twenty-third psalm. A
golden-haired, 4 1/2 year old girl was among those who
raised their hands. A bit skeptical, the teacher asked if she
could really quote the entire psalm. The little girl came to
the rostrum, faced the class, made a perky little bow, and said:
"The Lord is my shepherd, that's all I want." She then bowed
again and sat down. She may have overlooked a few verses, but
that little girl captured David's heart in \reference{Psalm 23}{Psalms
23}.
