Reflection on Psalm 23

Peace
Contentment
Resting in your arms
Beside a slow-flowing river

You can be trusted
To shepherd my soul
Nothing to fear

Even when you lead me
Through places
Of death
And danger
And despair
I won't be afraid
(not too much)
Because you are my God

You are
bigger
wiser
more loving
than I can imagine

So I will follow you
My God
My Shepherd

I will know you
deeply
experientially

I will love you
eternally
whole-heartedly
