Psalm 23.4

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.

This is, in it's KJV translation, probably the most famous "walking verse" in the Bible. There will be dark valleys on our walk. God does not promise to keep us out of dark valleys or keep evil away from us. What God promises is even better - to be with us, to guide us, and to take care of us, as a shepherd cares for the flock.
