Who do you follow?
“The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not want” (Psalm 23:1 NASB).
Similar to a good parent, a good shepherd knows his sheep well. He cares for them, He provides for them, and He protects them should trouble arise.
In His presence, the sheep have everything they need.
Our Father knew exactly what we needed, so He sent His Son in the flesh to our hurting world.
God’s Son came to this world for you and for me. He died and then He rose again to become the ultimate Shepherd of the ultimate flock.
Jesus comforts our souls, cares for us in the good times and bad times, and gives us direction. He knows us by name. He brings us back when we stray. His eyes are on us all the time.
In the presence of the ultimate Shepherd we lack nothing, we are content, and our hearts are abundantly full.
Heavenly Father, Thank you for being my perfect Shepherd. Thank you for providing everything I need and for leading me in a direction in which You know I will thrive. Help me to keep my eyes on Christ when nothing else makes sense in this world.
In Your Precious Son’s Name I Pray,
Amen
Basking in His Light
