“Our Shepherd Cares”

Sunday, October 08, 2017

Your righteousness reaches heaven, God, You who have done great things; God, who is like you? (Psalms. 71:19)

An awesome promise is made over and over again in the Bible: Whatever “it” is, God can handle it.

Our life isn’t always easy. Sometimes it is far from it! Life can be very, very difficult. But even then, during the darkest moments, we’re protected by a loving Heavenly Father. When we worry, God can reassure us. When we’re sad, God can comfort us. When our hearts are broken, God is not just near, He is already there. So we must lift our thoughts and prayers to him. When we do, He will answer our prayers. Why? Because He is our shepherd, and He has promised to protect us now and forever.

I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. (John10:11)

I am the good shepherd. I know my sheep and my own know me. (John 10:14)

Lord, you are our Shepherd. You care for us. You comfort us. You watch over us. We will praise you Father for your glorious works, for your protection, for your love, and most of all for the gift of your only son.
