I wont be afraid, for Jesus you are with me holding me close.

Psalm 23:

The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing.
He makes me lie down in green pastures,
he leads me beside quiet waters,
he refreshes my soul.
He guides me along the right paths
for His name's sake.
Even though I walk
through the darkest valley,
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.

You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies.
You annoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.
Surely goodness and love will follow me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

Oh Lord, my God, how majestic is your name in all the earth, at your Name the earth trembles and demons flee. At your Name captives are freed, those who have grown cold will suddenly feel warm and come back to you. Oh Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your Name in all the earth.

You will lead me beside these still waters, restoring my soul. You will personally see to it that our soul is refreshed, our humanity is once again given to us so that we can see the things that get in our way, ostacles such as stress, and overcome them.

We will lack nothing. Nothing at all. We gain everything. 'I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever'. Things are temporary, what matters is eternal.

Lord, please help me to have this perspective on my current situation. I would really value a job that I would love to do (i.e. teaching assisting) but if you have something better in mind that I have not thought of or even considered, then may it be your will. It would be great to know!
