Resting in God's Presence in the Face of Evil

Because the covenant-keeping God is with us, evil doesn't have the final word in our lives; so we can rest in His presence, even in the face of evil.    4 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. 5 You prepare a table before me     in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil;     my cup overflows. 6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me     all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord     forever. Psalm 23:4-6 ESV
