Pastor Ashish preached from Psalm 23 with a message about walking through the valley. He reminded us that sheep are not strong or self-sufficient. They are needy, vulnerable, and easily lost, just like us. And yet they are never abandoned by the Shepherd. He taught us about the wadi, the dark and dangerous valleys where life feels most uncertain. Places of fear, instability, and hidden threats. But even there, God does not leave us. The Good Shepherd stays close. He protects. He guides. He corrects with love. Pastor Ashish invited us not to rush past God’s Word but to soak in it, to let it steep deep in our hearts until it brings clarity and life. No matter how dark the valley feels, you are not alone. The Shepherd is with you.
