Ever since I was a little girl, Psalm 23 has been special to me. Three of my children have memorized it now. . . and in my head, when they recite, I hear my Grandma E. saying it in German. April 23rd would have been her 99th birthday. I miss her.
Psalm 23
A Psalm of David.
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.

That is the first Scripture I memorized too. Not sure how or when. I am linking in from Scripture and a Snapshot.
