have you ever felt that you are lost, forsaken ,don’t know what to do, no one cares about you , can’t find some one to help you, to answer your questions,someone who cares to lead, to guide, to walk with you through your life,someone who loves you, and leads you to the right path, to the true path that you were born to walk through, ever thought that you are without a Shepherd, and you know that you need that Shepherd badly , to lead you, carry your pain and love you, to feel satisfied ?to feel safe ? .

many are feeling the same as you do, I am one of those many. I need a Shepherd

let’s find out who can be our shepherd.

in mark 6

–

30The apostles gathered around Jesus and reported to him all they had done and taught. 31Then, because so many people were coming and going that they did not even have a chance to eat, he said to them, “Come with me by yourselves to a quiet place and get some rest.”

 32So they went away by themselves in a boat to a solitary place. 33But many who saw them leaving recognized them and ran on foot from all the towns and got there ahead of them. 34When 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.

as we see Jesus is offering himself to be our Shepherd,every lost one, every  one stumbling in his or her way, each one who feels like he is a sheep without a Shepherd, If you say in your heart, if you feel it, if you keep telling yourself ” I AM A SHEEP WHITHOUT A SHEPHERD”  here’s your answer, here’s your shephered, here’s my shephered, here is the one who have COMPASSION on us, here’s the one that feels our pain, that touched it, that is having COMPASSION  on YOU and ME ,on every SHEEP WITHOUT A SHEPHERD…

a question that’s always in minds, where can i find this Shepherd, where can i find Jesus the Shepherd, where i can find the rest to my soul. Those people on mark 6 are lucky ? because they found him?,, those people are better than me ? , are they good people and i am not that’s why they found Jesus.? are those questions are in your mind ? the answer is : in mark 6:33 But many who saw them leaving recognized them and ran on foot from all the towns and got there ahead of them.

what happened is that those people , saw Jesus and the apostles ,they recognized them, so they RAN on FOOT from All the towns and got there ahead of them, those people did nothing but when they recognized him, they ran to him,

they ran to him, and it didn’t matter where they were from, they ran to him on foot,no horses no cars, just their foot,,, so the answer is when you recognize God, when you see him, when you hear him, when you hear his call Don’t Ignore it,  all you have to do is to follow it, when you recognize God in a church, when you recognize him in a praise song, when you recognize him in a preaching, when you recognize him in his words in his holy bible, when your heart recognize God, Run, just run towards God, no need to be someone, or to have something,just run on your foots, carry yourself to him, he called on you because he is having compassion on you, he loves you and he loves us all. when you recognize him don’t ignore it, remind yorself of your need to a shepherd, remind your self with his compassion. remind yourself  how much love and life you are going to have because he is your Shepherd.

the followings words are from God to you, telling you how good shepherd he is , he is telling us all ” You can be my Sheep, I love you, and don’t worry I am a good shepherd”

in John 10

 11“I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. 12The hired hand is not the shepherd who owns the sheep. So when he sees the wolf coming, he abandons the sheep and runs away. Then the wolf attacks the flock and scatters it. 13The man runs away because he is a hired hand and cares nothing for the sheep.

 14“I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me— 15just as the Father knows me and I know the Father—and I lay down my life for the sheep. 16I have other sheep that are not of this sheep pen. I must bring them also. They too will listen to my voice, and there shall be one flock and one shepherd. 17The reason my Father loves me is that I lay down my life—only to take it up again. 18No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have authority to lay it down and authority to take it up again. This command I received from my Father.”

I must bring them also. They too will listen to my voice, and there shall be one flock and one shepherd.” he is saying I must bring you, it’s true you are not from this sheep pen, but you are going to listen to my voice, you are going to hear me and you are going to join my flock, and you will be my sheep and i will be your shepherd. I am stronger than sin, I beat it on the cross, I’m stronger than any circumstances you are in. you are going to be my sheep.

 Feel how much Love and Compassion God is having towards every one of us. no longer you will be lost, no longer you will be a sheep without a shepherd but you are going to join his flok, accept him, accept him when you recognize him, when you hear his voice.
