10:11 STRANGER or SHEPHERD
Mentorship is an important part of being an official. Mentoring lesser experienced officials at any level requires patience, knowledge, and sound teaching and fundamentals. These officials look up to their mentors and try to emulate their practices both on and off the floor. Most (if not all of us) have had a mentor(s) in our officiating careers. Our Lord Jesus was the ultimate Mentor - he laid down His life for all of us.
Jesus made several “I AM” statements in John’s Gospel. I AM is how the Jewish people in the Old Testament referred to Yahweh - God. Jesus made these bold claims to make it very clear that He IS who He said He is. In today’s verse, He tells us that He is the Good Shepherd who lays down His life for the sheep. We are His people; the flock He guides. As we approach every game, our Good Shepherd stands ready to guide us. Are we ready to be led by our Savior?

How can the image of the Good Shepherd assist us as we prepare for each game?
