Psalm 84:6
As they pass through the Valley of Baca, they make it a place of springs; the autumn rains also cover it with pools.
Although we all pass through circumstances which cause us to weep, yet God enables us to see those experiences turn into spiritual profit good for ourselves and for others. God is able to take our experience and make use of it in the life of someone else.
How long have you been in your Valley of Weeping? A year? 10 years? or longer than that? How much longer do you think you can hang in there? You may be surprised to know you're tougher than you think. You know why? It's because that you're not all alone lingering in the valley. God has always been with you and me in each of our valleys!!!
I've been in mine since 1996. After going through the first few years filled with sleepless nights and tears, I have much more peace, joy, and hope now. Hard to believe that the faith in God and the promises He made can make such big differences! I get encouraged and strengthened when God reminds me that I'm not in the valley struggling on my own. God has been with me on this journey. He is walking right next to me hand in hand. By inching ahead every day, I've reached this far. Where am I now? I have no answer, and I don't really care where I am. As long as God is with me, there's no place where I can't stand or endure.
