Through

The speaker shares their personal experience of identifying with people who have been lonely or in struggling relationships for a long time. They encourage listeners not to give up when they are in a difficult situation, using the example of walking through the valley of the shadow of death. The speaker emphasizes the importance of perseverance and not quitting, as the pit can become a platform for transformation and healing. They conclude by reiterating the word "through" as a reminder to keep going, even if progress is slow or invisible to others. I came to identify with people who've been lonely for years. For people who've been a struggling relationship for years. Just because you're in a pit does not mean it's over. I came to tell you, I'm standing here as a testimony to you today. Do not quit in the pit. You see, the relationship that all of us desire will take work that you don't see now. Yeah, the relationship you desire will take unforeseen work. That's why Psalm 23, the Lord says, Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death. I want to pull your attention to one word. Through. It's not a word of though I stop in the valley. Though I get tired and sit down in the valley. I am walking, everybody shout at me. Through. I don't care if you have to inch your way day by day. Even if you have to get down. And it hurts. And it's hard. And nobody can see what you're really going through. If you don't quit, the pit will become your platform. I'm telling somebody right now, your lowest moment will be the place of your greatest testimony. The place where you are best broken will be the place that God brings deliverance and healing for others. Everybody shout at me. Through.
