Father God, good morning. I love You, thank You, praise You, and give You all the honor and glory for this new day. Lord, help me to look for the lost and lonely in my life. Let me reach out to others who need encouragement and a friend, the way Father You do. The Good Shepherd, reach out to me. Thank You that when my hands can’t reach out my prayers cover a multitude of needs. I thank You, praise You, and give You all the glory in Jesus’ Precious Name Amen.
“I am the good shepherd, and the good shepherd gives his life for the sheep. The worker who is paid to keep the sheep is different from the shepherd. The paid worker does not own the sheep. So when he sees a wolf coming, he runs away and leaves the sheep alone. Then the wolf attacks the sheep and scatters them. The man runs away because he is only a paid worker. He does not really care for the sheep. “I am the shepherd who cares for the sheep. I know my sheep just as the Father knows me. And my sheep know me just as I know the Father. I give my life for these sheep.
John 10:11-15
