Devotions: The Good Shepherd


I am the good shepherd; the good shepherd lays down His life for the sheep.
John 10:11 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

Jesus is the best Shepherd we could ever have. The ultimate quality and requirement for a shepherd is protecting the sheep at all costs. A hired shepherd would only do this to a point, but the owner of the sheep would do far more. We are the sheep in Jesus’ flock and He willing laid down His life for us, to save us from eternal death, so that we could live with Him forever. He willingly took on the punishment for our sins so that we could have salvation, so we could be saved from the debt we owed. Have you made Him your Shepherd? Will you accept His sacrifice for your sins?
