Day 5. Christ Our Shepherd
Scripture
John 10:11 (KJV)
I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.
Reflection
Shepherd language carries tenderness and strength. The Lord names Himself as the good shepherd and lays His life down for His flock. A shepherd knows the path, knows the dangers, and knows the needs of each sheep. Christ guides with wise care. He calls by name and leads to peaceful water and nourishing pasture. In His company the soul rests and gains courage for the road. His voice carries recognition born of love. Move with Him today and you will find guidance for choices and comfort for weary places.
Application
Sit for a moment with John 10. Ask the Lord to help you recognize His voice with clarity. Welcome His guidance for one decision today. Follow that leading with trust and gratitude.
Closing Blessing
May the Shepherd of your soul guide your steps and surround you with tender care.
