Psalm 23:4

Even when I walk
    through the darkest valley,
I will not be afraid,
    for you are close beside me.
Your rod and your staff
    protect and comfort me.

God walks beside you in the dark places of life; He stands strong beside you in the valleys.  He fortifies you to keep walking through the darkest valleys.  He protects you from enemies of fear, and comforts you from all adversity.  He guides you securely with His rod of protection and staff of strength.  Believe the good Shepherd protects and comforts you.
