Yes, though I walk through the [deep, sunless] valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear or dread no evil, for You are with me;
Your rod [to protect] and Your staff [to guide], they comfort me.
Psalm 23:4 Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
***
Day by day, morning by morning,
begin your walk with Him in the calm trust
that God is at work in everything ….
It is your personal business, as a discipline of your heart,
to learn to be peaceful and safe in God in every situation ….
Remember, friend, where your real living is going on.
In your thinking, in your reacting, in your heart of hearts –
here is where your walk with God begins and continues.
So when you start to move into trusting Him, stay there.
Don’t wander out again into worry and doubt!
