Day 3 — Follow the Leader

Pray:

Lord God, quiet my soul and open my mind and heart to receive Your Word. Amen.

Read: Psalm 23

Reflect

Sheep are helpless and need a shepherd. A good shepherd cares for his sheep and leads them so that they find pasture. He watches over them and keeps them safe. If they stray, he pursues them and brings them back to the flock. In this psalm, David compares himself to a sheep and God as a good shepherd. Why does David call God his shepherd? Why doesn’t David fear evil? Is the Lord my shepherd?

Respond

Lord God, I am lost without You. Help me to follow You as my shepherd. Help me to listen to Your voice, and Your voice alone. Amen.
