The 23rd Psalm

The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want: Lord you are my keeper and you supply all of my needs. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: Lord you are my rest. He leadeth me beside the still waters: Lord you are my peace. He restoreth my soul, Lord you are my restoration. He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Lord you are my leader. Yea thou I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me. Lord; even though I am going through what seems to be the largest and most fierce storm of my life; I will trust in you. Thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Lord you are my source of comfort. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies, Lord you are my protector. Thou anointest my head with oil: my cup runneth over. Lord you are my healer, and you give me joy in abundance.  Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: Lord, no matter what happens you will never leave me.  I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. Lord, I will dwell in your presence forever. 

This passage is my all time favorite, because it just shows me that no matter what comes my way in life the Lord is always going to be there. The Lord is my strength, and my shield, my buckler, my shelter. The Lord is my defense in the time of trouble. There is nothing that comes my way that The Lord can't handle, there is nothing too big or too hard for my Lord. Even though I am facing one of the hardest trials of my life, I am able to walk with my head held high, because I know that my Lord has my back. I am able to lie down and rest worry free, because I know that my Lord has it all in control.
