The women at the retreat privately named their valley. We called it their “It”.

“IT”... “It” was the thing that knocks them over, makes them angry, or brings tears to their eyes. “It” is the thing that can somehow have more power over our day and our choices.

They were honest with themselves and with God while they sat safely on the couches and in their bedrooms at the retreat.

Most of us wished that our hard thing wouldn’t even be real. We wanted it to go away, or if that couldn’t happen, we wanted to HURRY UP and get OVER it!

BUT, when we looked at Psalm 23, we saw that the Shepherd didn’t snatch the sheep out of the valley. He didn’t even rush them along by making them run night and day until they “passed through it”. Rather, we noticed how the Shepherd encouraged the sheep to lie down in the very thick of it. (and I think… “no thank you, lets just keep moving and get past all of this darkness!)
