Today's Psalm 23

The Lord is my protector The shield of my life In tormented times he keeps me safe In today's turbulence he holds me fast To give me courage Not to fail him Through the minefields he leads me To praise his name In the midst of darkness He shines his light on me To keep me on the right path Where I will grow in strength From starvation he keeps me free Untouched by hostile forces Confident in his embrace So that I stride ahead strongly Wrapped in the comfort he provides My days look ever brighter He is my refuge and my shelter During my days upon this earth.

This is another example of different than I expected for the contest. "The Lord is my protector The shield of my life" I agree with this message. Congrats on your win.
