Day 24: The Good Shepherd

Daily Thread: Jesus’ position as the Good Shepherd connects directly to David’s role as shepherd-king and to Psalm 23. It also fulfills Ezekiel’s prophecy that God Himself would shepherd His people. Unlike false shepherds, Jesus lays down His life for the sheep. This image ties the Old Testament promises to Christ’s sacrificial love.
