Respite For the Weary
Matthew 2:6
And you, Bethlehem, land of Judah, are by no means least among the lead- ers of Judah; for out of you shall come forth a Ruler, who will shepherd My people Israel.
Isaiah 40:11
Like a shepherd He will tend His flock, In His arm He will gather the lambs, And carry them in His bosom;
He will gently lead the nursing ewes.
Psalm 23:1-3
The Lord is my shepherd,
I shall not want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside quiet waters,
He restores my soul;
He guides me in paths of righteousness For His name’s sake.
John 10:11, 14
I am the Good Shepherd; the Good Shepherd lays down His life for the sheep...I know My own, and My own know Me.
My Child,
I am your Good Shepherd. I know you, and I want to carry you, quiet you, guide you, and restore your soul. Let My rod and staff comfort you as you walk out your days. I am here morning, noon, and night.
Immanuel
You call me Teacher and Lord, and you are right, for so I am. If I then, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another's feet.
John 13:13-14
Dear Lord,
Help me realize that the greatest accomplishment I could ever achieve in my life is to quietly mimic you. May I not seek my own glory, but rather, please fill me with yours--the kind that radiates love, bends the knee, and washes feet. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
