Prayers

We have a lot of people in our group needing prayers right now. We need to be praying for Hannah, who's getting ready for another dose of treatment in Colorado. We need to be praying for the Bells and the Stovalls who lost their uncle this last week. We also need to be praying for the Drake family. Things have been extremely rough for them today as Mr. Drake is really struggling to heal from the illnesses he's been facing. This has been a week filled with a lot of tears and struggles, and we need to make sure we go the extra mile to support one another during these hard times. Those of us who haven't been dealing with health problems or losses in our own families need to remember how fortunate we are.

Psalm 23

A psalm of David.
1 The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want.

2 He makes me lie down in green pastures,
he leads me beside quiet waters,

3 he restores my soul.
He guides me in paths of righteousness
for his name's sake.

4 Even though I walk
through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.

5 You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.

6 Surely goodness and love will follow me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the LORD
forever.
