Reach Out

Reach your hands towards Jesus as you read Psalm 23 over your life. 

Psalm 23

The Lord is my shepherd;
    I have all that I need.
He lets me rest in green meadows;
    he leads me beside peaceful streams.
    He renews my strength.
He guides me along right paths,
    bringing honor to his name.
Even when I walk
    through the darkest valley,[a]
I will not be afraid,
    for you are close beside me.
Your rod and your staff
    protect and comfort me.
You prepare a feast for me
    in the presence of my enemies.
You honor me by anointing my head with oil.
    My cup overflows with blessings.
Surely your goodness and unfailing love will pursue me
    all the days of my life,
and I will live in the house of the Lord
    forever.

Psalm 23

1  YOU are my shepherd;
    I have all that I need.

    bringing honor to YOUR name.
Even when I walk
    through the darkest valley,[a]
I will not be afraid,
    for YOU are close beside me.
YOUR rod and YOUR staff
    protect and comfort me.
YOU prepare a feast for me
    in the presence of my enemies.

    My cup overflows with blessings.
Surely YOUR goodness and unfailing love will pursue me
    all the days of my life,
and I will live in YOUR house, Lord
    forever.
