Dietrich Bonhoeffer on the Dark Valley - Lutheran (Psalm 23)
"'Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death'—note: THROUGH, not around. God does not promise to spare us the valley but to walk with us through it. The shadow of death is still shadow; it is not death itself for those with the Shepherd." — Dietrich Bonhoeffer. The valley is traversed, not avoided.
