This beautiful stone sculpture is at the Saint Demetrios Greek Orthodox Church in Daytona Beach, FL. It reminds me of the 23rd Psalm, a comforting section of Bible scripture that my mother taught me when I was a young child. Here is that passage:

The Lord is my shepherd I shall not want.
He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters. He restores my soul;

He leads me in the paths of righteousness for His name’s sake. Yea, 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 runs over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I will dwell in the house of the Lord Forever.

I hope this Psalm brings you much comfort, as it does me. Kurt
