Mark 12; Psalm 23

Thank you, Father, for the understanding that you have given me. I know that you are God. You are the only God, and there is no other God but you.

I love you with all my heart, and with all my understanding, and with all my soul, and with all my strength, and I love my neighbor as I love myself. This dedication and dependence pleases you more than all tangible offerings and sacrifices.

This faithful position makes me a useful instrument to you. This steadfast attitude keeps me at peace in your kingdom.

You lead me, and I want for nothing. You make me lie down in lush pastures. You lead me beside refreshment and peace. You restore my lively hope. You lead me to your righteousness because I belong to you.

I abide with you, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit forever.
