”Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.“
Psalms 23:4 NIV
My husband and I were saying our prayers last night for different ones, who asked us to pray for them regarding illness, relationships, loneliness, etc. Many ones are walking through a very dark valley. I told my husband, “I wish I had a magic wand, I would wave it over all these requests and make all wellness, etc., happen. But, I don’t have a magic wand, my wand is Jesus, and we wave it over all prayer requests, and leave them with Him. The prayers that are answered, are deleted from our list: The unanswered ones stay and we continue praying for them. Prayer is laying hold of Jesus’ willingness, not His reluctance – He is our Shepherd and is with us. His rod and staff comfort us.
