Psalms 23:4a
"Even though I walk through the SHADOW of the valley of death.."
Ever wondered why isn't just "Even though I walk through the valley of death.."? I got my answer:)
In the book of 'Travelling light', Mac Lucado explained "Dr.Donald Grey Barnhouse told of the occasion of his first wife's death. He and his children were driving home from the burial, overcome with grief. He searched for a word of comfort to offer but could think of nothing.
Just then, a large moving van drove by. As it passed, the shadow of the truck swept over the car. An inspiration came to Dr.Barnhouse.
He turned to his family and asked, "Children, would you rather be run over by a truck or by its shadow?"
The children said, "Well ofcourse, dad. We'd rather be run over by the shadow. That wouldn't hurt.".
Dr.Barnhouse explained "Did you know that 2000 years ago, the truck of death ran over the Lord Jesus, in order that only its shadow might run over us?"
Hope it inspired you.
