Chapter 8 of Screwtape Letters gives us a different understanding of valleys. Low moments are alive with the presence of the Lord!! I've been trying to remember that when I hit low moments when life seems dark and God seems far. That truth, that these are fertile moments for the Lord to work breeds hope and joy in the valley.
One of the powerful realities of community, life together in small groups is that others can remind us that though the moment seems hard when we lose a job or face a crisis the Lord is with us and is at work!!
In a valley today? You are right where the hand of God can be more evident!! You have a God. Valleys are fertile ground to grow real faith!!
