Jesus, My Good Shepherd Ezekiel 34:31 "You are My sheep, the sheep of My grassland. You are only human beings, and I am your God.” This is what the Lord God said. Being a shepherd is not easy. His main job is to ensure the safety and the well-being of the sheep. A good shepherd will go an extra mile to take care of the flock of his sheep. Sheep are not able to look after themselves thus they need a shepherd to guide them to the grassland and to the water, and to protect them from the enemies. If the shepherd fails to do his responsibility, the sheep will suffer. Ezekiel declared that the shepherds of Israel had failed to fulfill their responsibilities to take care of them. These shepherds refer to the kings, nobles and religious leaders. They used their position for enriching themselves instead of helping the people. Due to this, God said that He would take away their position and He Himself would take care of the sheep to guarantee they received good care. This is why He sent Jesus to be the good Shepherd who cares for you and me. Jesus, the good Shepherd who is willing to lay down His life for His sheep, like us. Prayer Lord Jesus, as You reign over all as King of kings, continue to shepherd me tenderly and closely as Your dear sheep. Amen.
