Do you remember your favorite book from childhood?

The Psalms have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I would have heard them first, in church. Poetry, language, faith. I do not remember learning how to read. I remember reading many books when I was young.

I quoted from Psalm 23 for our post on March 30, 2020 at Poems From Psalms And Nature, as part of our 2020 series.

The LORD is my shepherd;
I shall not want.

He maketh me to lie down in green pastures:
he leadeth me beside the still waters.

He restoreth my soul:
he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness
for his name’s sake.

Psalm 23: 1-3

What fears have you overcome and how?

I reflect upon different life chapters. Being well-prepared is very helpful. And then in the context of plans and preparation, one step at a time and changes as needed.

This is a verse from the Psalms that has inspired me for years and years.

Wait on the LORD:
be of good courage,
and he shall strengthen thine heart:
wait, I say, on the LORD.

Psalm 27: 14
