Psalm of the day: Psalm 23
1 A Psalm by David. Yahweh is my shepherd; I shall lack nothing.
2 He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters.
3 He restores my soul. He guides me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.
4 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.
5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil. My cup runs over.
6 Surely goodness and loving kindness shall follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in Yahweh’s house forever.
Prayer of the day: Grace before meals
which we are about to receive from thy bounty,
through Christ our Lord. Amen.
Give bread, Lord, to those who hunger,
and hunger for you to those who have bread.
