Psalm 23 tells us that God’s peace, and the promise of God’s presence is possible. In fact, it shows us that it is possible to walk through the darkest, loneliest and most confusing times if we know who God is: the God who goes before us, the God who walks beside us, and the God who chases after us. Put it another way: God’s presence – before, beside, and behind – is enough to bring us through many hardships and all the way to the end.
