A Prayer For Those In The Valley

Father, thank You for taking care of Your children like a shepherd that keeps watching over his sheep. When we wander astray You lovingly seek us out and bring us back into Your protective care. When we have to need You to provide for us. You renew our strength when we are weary and discouraged. You guide us in the right paths for Your name’s sake. Though some of those well-trodden paths are laid out in valley settings You walk alongside us, lessening our fear of the unfamiliar settings and experiences of our mortal life. Your provision of everlasting peace is ours to receive here and now and forevermore. Thank You for never letting go, through the calm and through the storm, for You promise to uphold us with Your righteous right hand. Amen.
