JANUARY 19

THINK OF ALL IT MEANS to have Me as your Shepherd: My full-time job is watching over you, taking care of you. When danger threatens, I never abandon you—I have even gone so far as to lay down My Life for you. I, the Good Shepherd, know My sheep and My sheep know Me—just as the Father knows Me and I know the Father.

Savor My tender care as you lie down in the green pastures—I have reserved for you.

MEDITATION:
“The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters.”
—Psalm 23:1-2

“I am the good shepherd. I know my own and my own know me, just as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep.”
—John 10:14-15

“For the mountains may depart and the hills be removed, but my steadfast love shall not depart from you, and my covenant of peace shall not be removed,” says the Lord, who has compassion on you.”
—Isaiah 54:10

TODAY:
Jesus loves us with an everlasting love. Be inspired as He carries us close to His heart. His protective shield surrounds us. He sustains all of our needs and comforts our soul with His peace and joy.

Father in Heaven, we are brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus. We hear His voice through the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. With mindfulness and unshakeable trust in Your love and compassion our desire is to live a life of purpose and meaning. In the Lord’s holy presence our hopes and dreams are renewed. We are grateful for Your miraculous, mighty power manifesting in our lives. Amen!
