Lost Sheep

Psalm 23:1-3

A psalm of David.

The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing.

He makes me lie down in green pastures,

he leads me beside quiet waters,

he refreshes my soul.

He guides me along the right paths

for his name’s sake. 

.

Prayer

Thank you, Father, for sending your Son to be our shepherd, to call us into safety and guide us to clean waters. Thank you that the Lamb of God, lays down his life in sacrifice for our atonement. Help us, Lord, to hear your guiding voice, Amen.
