READ: John 10:11, Psalm 23
For those of you who don’t like to cut grass, here is a deal for you. Amazon is testing a service in a few cities called rent-a-goat. When you call, you get a consultation with a goat pro to assess your land and build a grazing plan. They’ll come and make sure nothing in your yard is poisonous, then drop off the goat to chow down on the grass. How about that? I don’t think we really need a goat pro, but I am quite certain we all need a shepherd. Jesus said, “I am the Good Shepherd.” He promises to protect us, save us from the clutches of evil, to lead us away from the things that will harm us, to lead us to the right paths, to show us the way to peace, to lead us to joy-filled living, and to life beyond the grave. You don’t have to rent a shepherd. You can’t buy the most important things in life, but you can trust the Shepherd and you can follow Him and He will guide you to what you need for free.
