What is your favorite quote to live by and why?
Psalm 23:4 “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.” (New King James Version) I like this verse because the walking explains that you will have challenges in life, but the Lord will be with me as I fight.
