 Today’s Scripture
|
| On Good Shepherd Sunday, we are invited to reflect on the tender care and guidance that Jesus, the Good Shepherd, provides to us, His flock. Today, we celebrate Good Shepherd Sunday, a day to remember and reflect on the beautiful image of Jesus as our shepherd. In the Gospel of John, Jesus says, “I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me” (John 10:14). As our shepherd, Jesus knows each of us intimately—our joys, our struggles, our journeys. He calls us by name and leads us to pastures of peace and renewal. The good shepherd does not lead from behind but walks ahead, facing the dangers, fighting off the threats, and guiding the way. The shepherd’s staff is both a tool of guidance and a weapon of protection. Similarly, Jesus guides us with his teachings and protects us with his grace. He laid down his life for us, the ultimate act of love, so that we might have life abundantly. On this day, we are also reminded of our own call to shepherd those in our care with love, patience, and dedication. We are called to be the hands and feet of the Good Shepherd in a world that yearns for his presence. Let us listen to the voice of the Good Shepherd and follow him with trust, knowing that He leads us to the fullness of life. May this Good Shepherd Sunday inspire us to trust in the loving care of Christ and to extend His shepherding love to all we meet. |
