September 11th: The Day That Changed Our World

Right after the September 11th attacks, President Bush invoked Psalm 23. This is one of the most powerful psalms and is relevant for all the days of our lives.

The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures,

he leads me beside quiet waters,
he restores my soul.

He guides me in paths of righteousness

for his name's sake.
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.
You prepare a table before me

in the presence of my enemies.

You anoint my head with oil;

my cup overflows.
Surely goodness and love will follow me

all the days of my life,

and I will dwell in the house of the LORD

forever.

May God Bless all those who died in these attacks and all those in the United States military who protect our freedom.
