One of our favorite places to canoe is the Meanders. The North Fork of the Payette River, known as the Meanders, is a calm stretch of water that connects the upper Payette Lake with Payette Lake. God's glory shines from the sky and the crystal clear water while his nature comes to the water's edge to be refresh. For some reason the animals don't expect humans to be on the water and don't seem to be afraid of us. The Meanders gives me a view of what David might have seen and felt when he wrote the 23rd Psalm.
Psalm 23
The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures,
he leads me beside quiet waters,
he restores my soul.
He guides me in paths of righteousness
for his name's sake.
Even though I walk
through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.
Surely goodness and love will follow me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the LORD
forever.
