Day 6 - Psalm 23

Psalm 23 - an oldie but a goodie.  oh wait, they're all old.  anyway, i'm not totally certain what makes this verse so popular - i mean, it's a great verse (as equally great as the whole Bible), but why has it become such a memorable verse throughout history?  is it because its a funeral verse?  a war verse - as men go into battle they cite this verse to themselves/God?  is it the shepherd analogy? 

i think what causes it to stand out to me is the power of vs. 4 "even though i walk through the valley of the shadow of death, i will fear no evil, for you are with me."  no matter how bad it gets, God is there...he will never leave us forsake us.

i love you, LORD.  my life without you would be worthless.  thank you for not leaving in my most desperate times.  amen.
