Psalm 23 Prayer: A Shepherd’s Guiding Hand

Heavenly Father,

As we journey through life’s valleys and hills, we seek Your guidance and comfort. Like a shepherd with his sheep, lead us beside quiet waters, restore our souls. In Your paths of righteousness, guide us, for Your name’s sake.

Even when we walk through the darkest valleys, we will not fear, for You are with us. Your rod and Your staff, they comfort us. In the presence of our challenges, You prepare a table for us, anointing our heads with oil; our cups overflow with Your blessings.

Surely Your goodness and unfailing love will pursue us all our days, and we will dwell in Your house, Lord, for endless days. In the quiet, in the storm, Your presence is our constant, our hope, our peace.

In Jesus’ name, we pray.

Amen.
