Walking in the Valley

"Thou Art With Me." One of the more vivid images of the Old Testament is the words from the Psalmist, " I walk through the valley of the shadows." Is there anyone who does not identify immediately with the travail of spirit which is expressed in these haunting words? They are like the worlds from Psalm 130: "Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O Lord, O lord, hear my voice." When times come that bring us to the Valley of the shadows it is so important to hear the rest of the verse

Without the presence of God undergirding our lives, who could survive the struggle of life.? With the Lord with us, we can do all things through Him who strengthens us.:
