John Calvin on Divine Providence in Psalm 23 - Reformed (Psalm 23)
"When David says 'I shall not want,' he means that God will supply all things necessary for a happy life. This is the fruit of divine providence: not that we get everything we desire, but that we lack nothing we truly need. The Shepherd knows what His sheep require." — John Calvin. Reformed providence: need, not greed, is met.
