Father, You are my shepherd. You are good.
As Your sheep, I find no want, for You are enough.
The waters are still today at the river, and these waters reflect the peace I find in You.
For Yours is the way of peace.
Restore my soul, quiet my mind.
Let my soul find comfort, rest, and restoration in Your guiding presence.
Lead me to righteousness, for Your name's sake.
When things are dark and difficult, be with me.
A constant guide and a comforting presence. Throughout this year in times of difficulty, in the valley of death, be with me.
Let me fear no evil, for You are there. You are with me. You are not a distant deity, but a present friend.
As the great shepherd, You call me and protect me.
You prepared a place at Your table for me.
I long to dwell in Your house and Your presence.
While I wait in this life, help me to call many to follow You.
Amen.
