The story: In this psalm of David, he says, "The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want": He makes me lie down in green pastures, leads me beside the still waters and restores my soul. Even in "the valley of the shadow of death," the psalm says, "I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me." "Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever."

Talk about it: Big idea: God cares for me, Peace, Trust. Which word from the puzzle reminds you most of the story?
