Sometimes, I believe, a passage of Scripture becomes so familiar that we quote the words without thinking of the wonderful truths God is sharing with us. Like the 23rd Psalm. Perhaps the most well-known passage; oft-quoted at funerals because of its precious message. But read it again now as you realize this isn't just a good passage for the dead. (Well, you know what I mean.) It's good for me!  Now!  Read and be encouraged by the Word of God!

How I wish to have child-like faith as this little one shows here.
Simply resting in His care as He leads.
Cute little lamb. :-)
Psalm 23
A psalm of David.
1 The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want. 2 He makes me lie down in green pastures,
     he leads me beside quiet waters, 
 3 he restores my soul.
     He guides me in paths of righteousness
     for his name's sake. 
 4 Even though I walk
     through the valley of the shadow of death,
     I will fear no evil,
     for you are with me;
     your rod and your staff,
     they comfort me. 
 5 You prepare a table before me
     in the presence of my enemies.
     You anoint my head with oil;
     my cup overflows. 
 6 Surely goodness and love will follow me
     all the days of my life,
     and I will dwell in the house of the LORD
     forever.
