Thoughts on Today's Verse...

The great hope that we have is that our Good Shepherd will return for us, call us each by name, and bring us securely into his fold. There we will share in his protective care and eternal peace.

My Prayer...

Lord God, thank you for sending Jesus to not only be the sacrificial lamb for my sins, but also the Good Shepherd. Thank you for the promise of rest, protection, and peace that are part of both my present and my future life with you in your Son. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
