Although life is not perfect, it is good.
Although sadness has left scars, life is happy.
Life is surprising even within the realm of the ordinary.
Each step leads to another. Days become years.
The path is worn with decisions made.
But, You alone know the number of my days. Each one is recorded in Your book.
You knew me as I was being formed in my mother’s womb…
and You will know me on that day, when I finally come home.
5You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You have anointed my head with oil; My cup overflows. 6Surely goodness and loving kindness will follow me all the days of my life, And I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever. Psalm 23
