“CONFESSION OF OUR TRUST IN THE GOOD SHEPHERD”
Saints of God Most High, hear God’s word for you today:
“Shepherd the flock of God that is in your care, exercising oversight not out of constraint, but willingly, as God wants; and not out of a desire for dishonest gain, but with enthusiasm……..” (1 Peter 5:2-4)
We must be compassionate shepherds who tenderly care for God’s flock and who feed them well, for we have the responsibility to guide, protect and oversee.
We must consider it a joyous pleasure and not merely a religious duty. Lead from the heart under God’s leadership, not as a way to gain finances dishonestly but as a way to eagerly and cheerfully serve
We must not be controlling tyrants but lead others by our beautiful examples to the flock. And when the Shepherd-King appears, we will win the victor’s crown of glory that never fades away.
CONFESSION OF OUR TRUST IN THE GOOD SHEPHERD!
