And the LORD sent Nathan [the prophet] to David. He came and said to him, “There were two men in a city, one rich and the other poor. “The rich man had a very large number of flocks and herds, But the poor man had nothing but one little ewe lamb Which he had purchased and nourished; And it grew up together with him and his children. It ate his food, drank from his cup, it lay in his arms, And was like a daughter to him. “Now a traveler (visitor) came to the rich man, And to avoid taking one from his own flock or herd To prepare [a meal] for the traveler who had come to him, He took the poor man’s ewe lamb and prepared it for his guest.”

If there would be a psalm that you could call your life psalm—the foundation of your life—it could be Psalm 103. It teaches us how to handle life in general. It gives us the key to deal with every circumstance no matter what it may be. And if that is not enough, it gives us a glimpse of the extent the work of Christ will have over humanity.
