SHEPHERD

MICAH 7:14 (MSG)
Shepherd, O GOD, your people with your staff...

JOHN 10:4 (NLT)
After he has gathered his own flock, he walks ahead of them, and they follow him because they know his voice.

SUMMARY SENTENCE

God leads and protects his people.

PRAYER
Holy Shepherd, your distinctive voice calls me to follow you. In your fold of abundant and everlasting life, you keep me safe, but I am easily lured away by worldly voices that clamor for my attention and allegiance. Open my soul's ears to discern your call to follow your way, your truth, and your life. I will trust you, beloved Shepherd. Amen. (Daily Texts, Ground Up Grace edition)

THE LORD'S PRAYER
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your Name. Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. Save us from the time of trial and deliver us from evil. For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours now and forever. Amen.
