Dear Friends and Family,
2022 has mostly been a year walking through dark valleys but we have also climbed a few mountains and feel God with us in all the highs and lows. A wise friend recently reminded that fruit isn’t produced on the mountaintop but in the valley. Valleys tend to induce anxiety and fear, but they also bring us closer to our Shepherd. It is comforting to be reminded that even when we walk through the valley of the shadow of death, we will fear no evil; for God is with us. (Psalm 23:4a)
