The Lord is…
- my mechanic
- my plastic surgeon
- my yoga instructor
- my president
- my lover
I shall not want?
He maketh me to lie down…
- in a house with three screaming kids
- on a stage in front of thousands
- on a dirt floor in Peru
- in front of a desk full of paperwork
- in a life that wasn’t planned
He leadeth me …
- to the sauna at the gym where I can sweat
- to the closet with door locked where I can think
- to the hiking path in the park where I can pray
- to the brand new deck where I can sit and drink sweet tea
- to the empty house where I can sit on the couch and play video games
He restoreth my soul: he…
- puts me in my place
- shows me how I look to everybody else
- tells me that I was the one who was right
- brings my blood pressure down
- finally sends me a check
Yea, though I walk through…
- unemployment
- an oil spill
- cancer treatment
- AA
- the Nashville flood
I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me…
…Thou preparest…
- my awesomeness
- my 401K
- my foreclosure
- my arrogance
- my iPhone 4G
before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my…
- beer
- diet coke
- debt
- closet full of fashionable clothes
- infinity pool
runneth over.
Surely…
- my cigarettes and coffee
- my friends and family
- my health and prosperity
- my church and pastor
- my pretty face and white smile
…shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.
