APPLE PODCASTS † SPOTIFY
For the past few months, my children and I have been working through the names of God in our personal Bible time. When we came to shepherd, I asked my children what they thought a shepherd does for his sheep, and their responses caused me to pause as we considered how many ways the Good Shepherd takes care of us. When my son spoke up with his thoughts on the importance of a shepherd carefully watching, protecting, and caring for his flock, my heart lurched in thankfulness. My son shared how grateful he was that a shepherd would not forget his sheep even when it was lost. His vivid explanation of the shepherd’s relentless search, care, and comfort for his sheep touched a soft place in my son’s heart as he was struggling with his own recent behavior issues and felt like he kept getting stuck in his efforts to find his way back to his time with the Lord. What a true shepherd we have who comforts and cares for us even when we wander.
