I know that goodness and faithfulness will follow me all the days of my life, and I will return to the house of the Lord as long as I live. Psalms 23:6
I address myself to the Lord, Shepherd and King, with this journey prayer because I understand that the God I believe in never changes. So be my beloved guide and shepherd who leads me to eternal salvation, where the Lord will always guide me. Thus I will follow the path fully with love and care. Forgive my sins, my God and King, and help me to walk in the quiet valleys, and that when I pass through the valley of the shadow of death the Lord will be with me.

Holy Father, in this prayer of the journey, I recognize that as we grow older we tend to change our vision in relation to you, due to the afflictions of life. But the Lord does not change, so I have to understand what the journey is like here in this world for those who serve you, because everyone will have the heritage that promised.
Help me to always understand Your truth as I study the scriptures with this journey prayer. When I look at this passage:“He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness for His name’s sake. 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” (Psalm 23:3, 4), begin to understand your work.
I see that at the same time that the shepherd in the psalm guides his sheep on the path of righteousness, that same path seems to lead to the valley of the shadow of death. Does this mean, my God, that the problems I go through in life can be a means of guiding me on the journey of justice.

Then, my Father, the plots against me, the gossip that can tarnish my image and so many dark valleys can be transformed into blessings. It is true that many of them do not need to happen, but the Lord takes advantage of the situation to shape my character.
So my Father, hear this prayer of the journey and lead me according to your wisdom, because you are an expert in changing lives and situations. Be my God and king, who gives me the power to win. So I will see who is behind the actions in my life.
My God, I know that shepherds used to break the legs of the most unruly sheep, because they could die if they did something wrong. Although it seemed like a bad thing on the part of the shepherd, he would carry the sheep in his arms throughout the journey. That is why I turn to you with this prayer for the journey.
Just like the shepherd of this sheep, the Lord needs to break some things in my life, which may make me sad, but I will be in your arms of love. Certainly the blessings of your care will be enormous in my life because it changes the fate of everyone who believes..
You are my saint and king, shepherd of my life, where Christ paved the way so that you may be my guide throughout the entire process of salvation here on earth. So I present myself with this prayer of the journey because I know it guides me even when I am sick and facing various trials..
I will trust in you when the world falls apart around me, when sadness comes through a trial. So I will remain firm until the end of the journey of this life because you are my eternal king. So answer this prayer of the journey in the name of Jesus. Amen!
