Best Friends

Psalm 23

The Lord is my constant companion.
There is no need that He cannot fulfill.
Whether His course for me points
to the mountaintops or glorious ecstasy
or to the valleys of human suffering,
He is by my side,
He is ever present with me.
He is close beside me
when I tread the dark streets of danger,
and even when I flirt with death itself,
He will not leave me.
When the pain is severe,
He is near to comfort.
When the burden is heavy,
He is there to lean upon.
When depression darkens my soul,
He touches me with the eternal joy.
When I feel empty and alone,
He fills the aching vacuum with His power.
My security is in His promise
to be near to me always,
and in the knowledge
that He will NEVER let me go.

(taken from Psalms/Now by Leslie F. Brandt)
