"Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over." - Psalm 23:5The imagry shifts in Psalm 23 from a Shepherd and sheep to a banquet, with God as Host.
Life in Jesus is a banquet! He's not talking about heaven where there will be no enemies, he means here and now!
Sure there are enemies, and difficulties, tragedies, and hurts but there is God's grace and abundance also available to more than make up for it!
It's like a bumper sticker I saw,
"The worse day fishing is better than the best day working".I like work, but the worst day in Christ is better than the best days without him.
