Weekend Reflection: The Still Waters

Today We Mourn With Those Who Mourn

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.

3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.

4 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.

5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

6 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.

Psalm 23 (KJV)

  1. What a beautiful picture, and oh how I love the 23rd Psalm. (It was my Mother’s favorite) 🙂 I’ve been wanting to go to the Laity Lodge for a retreat – hoping I can do so soon. Blessings – and thanks much for stopping by my blog today!

    • It was my pleasure, Sarah! And I’m glad to see you here. I hope you get to Laity someday–it truly is like no other place on earth.

  2. Just reading Psalm 23 is like a retreat, isn’t it? It’s such a beautiful picture of God’s love for us – so much in these few verses to rest in. Hope you are having a beautiful weekend, Sheila. xox

  3. Great combo of the Word and the photo. You really tied it together…and spread it around to the rest of us.
    Thanks much!
