Psalm 23 The LORD is my shepherd I lack nothing. He makes me lie down in green pastures he leads me beside quiet waters he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake.

The Valley of the Shadow of Death is not an easy place for your selfishness to grow. It is the place where self dies. If you accept the Valley of Death as My Will, then where there is loss, selfish demands die. Where there is pain the desire to serve others grows. Where there is a bleak future faith grows. Where there is pride the humble knowledge of your weakness takes over. Learn to Love the valleys. They are the truly good times of your life. Psalm 23 The LORD is my shepherd, I lack nothing. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake. Even though I walk through the darkest valley, 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 anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.
