Where the Real News is the Good News

The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing.
2   He makes me lie down in green pastures,
he leads me beside quiet waters,

So do not fear, for I am with you;
    do not be dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you and help you;
    I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

For the Lord is good and his love endures forever;
    his faithfulness continues through all generations.

But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.

Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.

So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded.
