Then we, your people, the sheep of your flock,
will thank you forever
and praise you for all time to come.

PRAYER
Thank you, Good Shepherd, for choosing me to be one of your sheep. I am delighted to be in your flock where you know me better than I know myself. I am sorry that I sometimes stray, looking for greener pastures. When I get stuck or lose my way, thank you for always wecoming me back into your fold. Amen. (Daily Texts, Ground Up Grace edition)

with what is happening in heaven.
