NOTES

Overwhelmed
“The Valley”
Pastor Daniel Foster

Nobody chooses valleys. But at some point, every person in this room will find themselves facing a season you didn't see coming.

Even though…

"Even though" means: Despite what I see, what I feel, or what I can't explain, I'm still trusting God.

…I walk through the valley…

Valley’s are temporary.

Sometimes faith isn’t taking giant leaps. Sometimes faith is simply taking the next step.

Valleys are temporary. God’s presence is permanent.

…the valley of the shadow of death…

Valleys can feel overwhelming.

…I will fear no evil…

Courage isn’t the absence of fear. Courage is deciding fear doesn’t get the final word.

...for you are with me…

God is present in the valley.

Sometimes God gives peace before he gives perspective.
Sometimes God gives presence before he gives answers.

The Shepherd is working in the valley.

…your rod and your staff, they comfort me.

The valley is where you discover whether Jesus is someone you sing about or someone you trust.
