Thank you for getting rid of the religious overtones and creating something that resonates with the theme of the psalm and is non-discriminatory and inclusive way. I think you are putting words to a feeling that is available to every human being no matter what race, creed or color - a comfort in times of trouble by feeling connected with something greater than yourself that is good and nurturing. <br /><br />To the religious folk out there who might wish to share their dislike for a personal reflective interpretation of an 'old classic', thank you for sharing, you must feel very passionately about what you believe, welcome to the human race, you are not the only one, isn't that interesting, let the way you live your life be a light and example to others (you don't need to preach as actions speak louder than words, let others live their own lives with the freedom given to us all, and have a nice day.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23738246.post-14596974324307737172009-07-21T06:51:31.523-06:002009-07-21T06:51:31.523-06:00I do not have a problem with the original idea of ...I do not have a problem with the original idea of sheep and shepherds but I do find your translation to be beautiful also.

He died and rose again so that all we need to do is believe in him and when we die, we will be raised with Him. That's why it says, "The Lord is my Shepherd..." If you are comforted with walking towards death, then be my guest. But I am comforted in Christ, for He has given me eternal life. Read Romans 8:31-39, then repent of this nonsense and give your life to Jesus Christ. Who is real, who is living, who loves you, and wants you to walk without fear towards life, and life eternal!Edwin Rohwellernoreply@blogger.com
