*My Relationship to God
You, O Lord, are my shepherd; I shall not be in want.
You make me lie down in green pastures;
You lead me beside quiet waters;
You restore my soul.
You guide me in the paths of righteousness
for Your name’s sake.
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.
You prepare a table before me in the presence
of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil;
My cup overflows.
Surely goodness and mercy will follow me all the days
of my life,
and I will dwell in Your house, O Lord, forever.
(Psalm 23:1–6)

a heart of wisdom. (Psalm 90:12)
