TROUBLES I HAVE FACED, BUT GOD… THE LORD WILL ALWAYS BE BY YOUR SIDE
Throughout the month of June we will feature Devotionals written by our GBFC Youth. May your hearts be encouraged by what the Lord's Word is doing in the hearts of our young people.

SCRIPTURE: “Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.” Psalm 23:4 NIV
God showed me this in my life when I went to an Orioles game and a huge riot broke out when we went to get ice cream afterward. I prayed to the Lord for protection, and we were able to leave the scene with our ice cream. It spilled all over my shirt, but I was thankful that He kept us safe!
PRAYER: Dear Lord, every time I leave the house, please protect me and remind me that You are always by my side. Even in the most dangerous moments the Lord will be by my side. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
