There are many times in our spiritual lives when we find ourselves in a dark valley, and it doesnt help when we begin to feel sorry for ourselves, thinking that we ought not be there.It is not a question of being there, but a question of God taking us by a way which in the meantime we do not understand. Sometimes, it is only by going through the valley that we begin to listen and understand what it is that God wants of us.Unfortunately, there is often a cloud of doubt upon the human heart, and even love itself has to wait in pain and tears for the blessing of fuller communion.When God looks completely shrouded to you, will you hang on to His great love as you walk through that valley?
God is with us in the darkest valley, He is with us in deep despair; He uses every tear to cleanse us And loves us each and every hour.
I know its hard to remember this When being trampled among the beasts; But God has said He will neverleave us But keep us always in His peace.
