Shepherded

Are you being led? Are you being shepherded? What does it look like to have God shepherding us?

The Bible describes people as sheep who wander and go astray, needing a shepherd to lead them.

Scripture also teaches us that God is the Good Shepherd we need to lead us.

The Apostle Peter wrote these truths in his first letter, saying, “For you were straying like sheep, but have now returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.” (1 Peter 2:25, ESV).

God is the Shepherd and Overseer of our souls. We no longer need to stray or to go our own way. God is our Shepherd.

May we be shepherded by the Good Shepherd as we walk in the path he is leading us.

A Prayer for the Fourth Sunday of Easter: Good Shepherd: “O God, whose Son Jesus Christ is the Good Shepherd of your people: Grant that, when we hear his voice, we may know him who calls us each by name, and follow where he leads; who, with you and the Holy Spirit, lives and reigns, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.” (Book of Common Prayer, 2019).
