I am sure we have all walked through the valleys on our journey. The valley sounds as if it would be a place of rich nature, babbling brooks, peace ect........... However in our spiritual life, I have found the valley a place of great learning. Where your life is ripped opened, is raw & exposed ! A place where there is NO where to run nor hide except under the shadow of his wing. Torments, troubles, the trials we face, all help us become strong enough to climb to the tops of the mountains & feast @ God's table. A few scriptures then I'd like to share..... ISAIAH CHAPTER 43 But now thus saith the LORD that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine. 2 When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee. 3 For I am the LORD thy God, Psalm 23 4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. 5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. 6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.
