I think Psalm 23 is probably the most familiar Psalm of all
and I can see why because it is such a comfort.
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures:
he leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul:
he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
Yea, though I walk through
the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil:
for thou art
with me;
thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies:
thou anointest my head with oil;
my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life:
and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.
We went back to listening to church on line again today.
Last week we went to the church building
because there were two services and we went to the first one
which was for us old folks.
Not many people and we felt comfortable with the spacing.
Today it was decided to go back to having just the one service
and we just didn't feel comfortable being in such a big crowd yet.
We will just take it a week at a time and go when we feel ready.
A happy Sunday to all.
God Bless You.
Thanks for stopping by.

A few of you mentioned it being scary seeing the bear cub. Not scary! They are black bears and they really do run away if they see you. It is more scary coming across a mean dog!!
Vee - Yes, I still carry pepper spray when I walk.
Deb - I have a Kindle Oasis.

Psalm 23 is a wonderful and comforting Psalm. We still do not have church at the church building, but rather are meeting in small groups, no more than 15 people.
...it's a favorite.
After I had Roger home from the hospital and rehab, I had what I assume was an anxiety attack...not sure. It was at night, was the most horrible thing you can imagine...I could not lay still, but I could not get up...I knew that I could not live that way. It is impossible to explain how/why it was so horrible...so I started repeating The Lord is My Shepherd...and concentrating on that and I got all right. I really do feel knowing those lines may have saved my life that night.
Psalm 23 is a comforting Psalm.
All the best Jan
Glad you can still enjoy services at home. Psalm 23 is a wonderful Psalm. My father's favorite was Psalm 103. I've been enjoying Psalm 19. Hope the first week of summer is good for you!
Psalm 23 is very comforting. It was my mom's favorite. I understand your hesitance to be in large crowds. Especially since in several places it looks like the second wave is starting. We are very content to stay to ourselves.
Thank you for today's Psalm.
God bless.
Hi Karen- That is a nice Psalm- I'm sure it has featured in a couple of old Movies- though cannot remember which ones. Hope your Church returns to normal services before to long. Regards. KEV.
A beautiful Psalm, very comforting. Glad to still enjoy service online until you feel comfortable. I get nervous when seeing lots of people and some don't wear masks. Have a nice day!
