You'll be surprise how psalm 23 can relate to you:-
Student's Version
The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not flunk
     He keepeth me from lying down when I should be studying
     He leadeth me beside the water cooler for a study break
     He restores my faith in study guides
     He leads me to better study habits
     For my grades' sake
 Yea, though I walk through the valley of borderline grades
     I will not have a nervous breakdown
     For thou art with me
     My prayers and my friends, they comfort me
     Thou givest me the answer in moments of blankness
     Thou anointest my head with understanding
     My test paper runneth over with questions I recognise
 Surely passing grades and flying colours shall follow me
     All the days of my examinations
     And I shall not have to dwell in this exam hall forever.
The Lord is my Programmer, I shall not crash.
He installed His software on the hard disk of my heart.
All of His commands are user friendly.
His Directory guides me to the right choices for His name's sake.
Even though I scroll through the problems of life,
I will fear no bugs, for He is my backup.
His password protects me.
He prepares a menu before me in the presence of my enemies.
His help is only a keystroke away.
Surely goodness and mercy will follow me, all the days of my life.
And my file will be merged with His and SAVED FOREVER!
At The Workplace
The Lord is my real boss, and I shall not want.
He gives me peace when chaos is all around me.
He gently reminds me to pray before I speak
and to do all things without murmuring and complaining.
He reminds me that He is my Source and not my job.
He restores my sanity every day
and guides my decisions that I might honor Him in everything I do.
Even though I face absurd amounts of emails, system crashes,
unrealistic deadlines, budget cutbacks, gossiping co-workers,
discriminating supervisors,
and an aging body that doesn't cooperate every morning,
I will not stop--
for He is with me!
His presence, His peace, and His power will see me through.
He raises me up, even when they
fail to promote me.
He claims me as His own,
Even when the company threatens to let me go.
His faithfulness and love are better than any bonus check.
His retirement plan beats every 401K(smthg like our pension thg) there is!
When it's all said and done,
I'll be working for Him a whole lot longer;
and for that, I bless His name.
ENJOY!
