Psalm 91 Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord‚ “He is my refuge and my fortress‚ my God‚ in whom I trust.” Surely he will save you from the fowler’s snare and from the deadly pestilence.

In the book of Psalm there are several passages I have found to be encouraging‚ consequently‚ there is not just one I can call my favorite. The Psalm I have chosen to write about is Psalm 23.

A Psalm of Life 1 I think the message of this poem is to try to encourage people to live their lives in an important manor. Don’t just follow the crowd; stand out and be somebody noteworthy.
