It was a day of valleys… which sometimes you have as a chaplain. And so fitting that these words from Psalm 23 were on my mind as I listened and prayed and walked the long hallway out of the hospital with a grieving family…

Even though I walk
through the darkest valley,
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me…

Psalm 23:4a

Today I watched a family walk in a very dark valley… yet they walked it with hope. Lord willing, as will I some day.
