Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I fear no evil; for you are with me; your rod and your staff - they comfort me.

Increasingly it is the presence of God that is most meaningful to me.

I do not expect dramatic interventions, but I very much depend upon God's company.

God offers guidance, his staff touches my shoulder warning to choose another way. If I am paying attention, God is leading me along the path that is best for me.

But whether I am on the path or have blithely wandered, God is there.

There is comfort in companionship.
