Prayer Inspired by Psalm 23

Lord, my Shepherd,
I acknowledge You as the provider of all I need.
In You, I lack nothing.
Lead me to rest in green pastures,
Guide me beside quiet waters,
Refresh my soul.
Guide me along the right paths for Your name’s sake.
Even when I walk through the darkest valley,
I will fear no evil, for You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.
Surely Your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life,
And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
Amen.
