The Lord is my Shepherd

In celebration of today's reading about the Good Shepherd, I am sharing this "photoquote" of Psalm 23:1


The photo is a section of the Banaue rice terraces here in the Philippines.

The whole passage is from the Psalm of David which reads:


The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside still waters;
He restores my soul. He leads me in right paths For His Name's sake.
Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I fear no evil;
For you are with me;
Your rod and Your staff - they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies, You anoint my head with oil;
My cup overflows.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me All the days of my life. And I shall dwell in the house of the Lord My whole life long.
[Psalm 23:1-6; NRSV]

I got this from:  http://www.catholic.org/prayers/prayer.php?p=2612

I also have posted before verse 4 of this whole Psalm. Here is the link to this post.
