Fear No Evil

Video Illustration

Produced by James Grocho (Grochowalski)

A mini movie themed from the verse Psalm 23. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I will fear no evil. I will not fear But I am afraid. Yet somehow, in just releasing my worries to the ONE. There is a peace beyond all understanding that covers me. A relief. As if expressing my grief has allowed my cares to be cast upon the one who holds the world in his hands.
