I cannot tell you how many times I have read Psalm 23...it brings me comfort and confidence in who God is.
That being said, I don't think I ever fully noticed the last few lines of the Psalm until recently:
"Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever."
I have dwelled so much in my sorrow that I would repeat the first few verses to myself over and over again, completely forgetting the promise that God leaves us at the end.
No matter what happens, God's goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life. I WILL dwell in the house of the Lord forever, no matter what happens. No matter what! Isn't that incredible?
Check out this song by Jon Foreman, called The House of God, Forever.
