This is a beautifully crafted expression on psalm 23. The power of Gods word knows no limits and this has inspired you to write with joy and expectation in your heart. Well done, Paul.

I believe as a writer that writing saves us in many ways. It helps us to express what we cannot say. It also helps us to bring a part of ourselves to the world. This is an excellent, well written explaination of why we write.

What an intriguing, bi-level "take" on the prompt. It's densely written, a form of prose poetry, with an exalted tone that would be hard to sustain for very long. But since it's modeled on a relatively short psalm, it's not only easier to follow, section by section, but also mercifully finite.

First and foremost, good luck in the contest. Your story, though short, was well written and quite unique. I had never thought about writing poetry, short stories, or novels as an Psalm 23 experience. Yet, I do have to admit, I can tell when I'm being assisted via the Holy Ghost or Heavenly Father.

Thanks for sharing this. Jonathon
