Memorize and Reflect

The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing. (Psalm 23:1)

Prayer Direction

Pray without ceasing throughout the day (1 Thessalonians 5:17) that God will engage with you reminding you of His presence. In other words, practice the presence of God.

“Live It!” Challenge

Begin each morning reciting Psalm 23 asking God to remind you of His presence throughout the day. And then recite out loud the Lord’s Prayer (Matthew 6:9-13) asking God to give you the plan for the day!
