SHEPHERD: The Good Shepherd oversees your soul - 1 Peter 2:25

For “you were like sheep going astray,” but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls. 1 Peter 2:25

LIVING TRUTH:

• “What man among you, who has 100 sheep and loses one of them, does not leave the 99 in the open field and go after the lost one until he finds it? When he has found it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders, and coming home, he calls his friends and neighbors together, saying to them, Rejoice with me, because I have found my lost sheep!" Luke 15:4-6
• "I Am the Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd lays down His life for the sheep." John 10:11
• "I Am the Good Shepherd. I know My sheep and My sheep know Me, just as the Father knows Me and I know the Father. And I lay down My life for the sheep." John 10:14-15

Prayer & Praise:

Once, I was like a wandering sheep, helpless and lost without hope, but now I have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of my soul. I praise You, Lord Jesus, for Your sacrificial love in laying Your life down for me. You left the 99 sheep and searched for me when I had gone astray into the path of sin and despair. You found me, put me on Your shoulders, carried me, healed my wounds, and led me to green pastures where I see Your goodness all the days of my life. Heavenly Father, I can never thank You enough for sending Christ, the Good Shepherd, to rescue me. I confess Jesus as my LORD and surrender my life to the Overseer of my soul. I pray in Jesus' mighty name.
