For My Courageous Sisterchick®

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not freak out.

He makes me lie down under scanning machines,

He leads me to trustworthy doctors,

He restores my deductible.

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death

(And keep on walking and don’t get stuck

or sit down or have a hissy fit),

I will fear no evil,

For You are with me.

Your new creation health renewal plan

And perfect timing, they comfort me.

You prepare an organic diet before me

In the presence of my injections.

You anoint my baldhead with oil

When my bra cup no longer overflows.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life,

And when You at last pull my chart and call my name,

I shall arise

And dwell with You in Your house,

Forever.

Adapted from the 23rd Psalm
