Michelle Phllips Program

For everything there is a season, and a time to every matter under heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted; a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance.”

-Ecclesiastes 3:1-4 L IFE S TORY

The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pas tures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he restores my soul. He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. Ye, though I walk thru the valley of 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 anointed my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely your goodness and mercy will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. Amen PSALMS 23
