Devotions: Turning to the Shepherd


For you were continually straying like sheep, but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Guardian of your souls.
1 Peter 2:25 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

There was a period in everyone’s life when we were not following Christ. We all have a pre-Christ/salvation era, for some it is longer than others. We all were opposed to Christ to begin with, but now that is different. Now, those who believe in Him, who have been changed by His sacrifice, have turned to Him and follow Him, like sheep following their Shepherd. That is why Jesus came. He could not change our beginning, but He can change our ending if we let Him. He will guide and guard us, leading us through danger to good pastures and providing all we need, if we will turn to Him. Have you turned to Him? Have you made Him the Shepherd and Guardian of your soul?
