This is a paraphrase of the twenty-third psalm that I wrote with singles in
mind. As you read it remember Jesus is your Shepherd. He cares for you. He
knows what it means to be single, for he lived as a single man himself. Who
better to watch over you and keep you safe?
Jesus is my greatest friend,
My Protector,
My Guide:
I shall be contented.
My walk with him provides rest and refreshing.
He satisfies my inmost self.
I will face everything that comes with Jesus, my Lord.
I will know him as my constant companion.
My fellowship with him will be my greatest delight;
I will not let enemies steal it from me.
I have an overflowing cup;
I am fully satisfied;
And I will always be at home with
him.
