Psalm 23 (ESV): 23 A Psalm of David.
1 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. 2 He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters.
3 He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.
4 Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.
5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. 6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

1. Shadows Distort Reality
They are proof that God’s light is still present.
1 Peter 1:6–7 (NLT)
So be truly glad. There is wonderful joy ahead, even though you must endure many trials for a little while. These trials will show that your faith is genuine.

3. Shadows Don’t Last Forever
I know it feels like you are in the valley of death, but if you are walking THROUGH it!
There is light at the other side.
2 Samuel 22:29 – “You, Lord, are my lamp; the Lord turns my darkness into light.”
