Mark 6:34 When Jesus landed and saw a large crowd, he had compassion on them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd. So he began teaching them many things. (NIV)
We are all fallible. We all make mistakes. We all experience the trials of falling down. After falling down, we sometimes we have a difficult time recovering. We all get lost. Even if we are afraid to venture out, we can still get lost in our fear and anxiety. No matter how invincible we might think we are, eventually we become like sheep without a shepherd. Jesus is portrayed many ways to us in the New Testament. In the verse above, He is shown to us to be a teacher with great compassion for us. Jesus not only has great compassion for us, He also wants us to learn from Him. In everyday life, this means we should learn from the Bible and apply its truth. If we are open and trusting, we can learn His ways and receive His blessings
Let us pray :
Most Precious Lord Jesus, Gentle And Wonderful God, Truly Awesome And Ever-present Holy Spirit,
Precious Lord Jesus, I love you.
You are my Lord, in you I have peace.
You are my Shepherd and I am one of your flock.
When I was without hope, you gave me eternal life.
When I turned to my own way, you called my name and saved me from falling down into the eternal abyss.
When I was injured, because you love me, you bound up my wounds and healed me.
When I was weak, you strengthened me.
In your love, because of you, I shall have eternal life and never die.
In your love, I no longer want.
In your love, you lead me to lie down in green pastures.
In your love, you lead me to drink from still waters.
In your love, you lead me in the paths of righteousness for your names sake.
In your love, you restore my soul.
Now I live in the shadow of the most high where there is no shadow.
Now I live in the shadow of your cross where there is no shadow.
Thank you, Precious Lord Jesus.
All these things I humbly pray in the name of my most Blessed Lord Jesus Christ, my Mighty God, and my Ever-present Holy Spirit upon whom I can rely.
Amen
