EVERY DAY WITH JESUS (1 of 10)
How To Face The Days Ahead (Psalm 23)
Ken Trivette
Psalm 23:1
Outline
I. BE AMAZED BY "THE LORD'S" PERSON!
A) He is the Uncaused God
B) He is the Unchanging God
II. BE ALERT TO "THE LORD'S" PRESENCE!
A) He Watches Over Us
B) He Walks With Us

journey is over we will "dwell in the house of the
Lord forever." A subtitle of the book could be, "From
Earth to Glory," for we as believers have the
assurance that when this life is over and our journey
is complete, we have a heavenly home awaiting us.
3) I think of the story of the lady who found out she
had cancer and that she only had about three months to
live. She called her pastor and had him come to her
house so she could talk to him about here funeral. She
told him what songs she wanted sung, the scripture she
wanted him to use, and then said, "Pastor, I have one
final request. You may think it strange but I want to
be buried with my Bible in one ha ...
