Focus on God’s Goodness-Good Shepherd

May 22nd, 2024

JOHN SHIRK – Today’s Focus on God’s Goodness is found in Psalm 23:1.

“The LORD is my Shepherd, I lack nothing.”

This is how David knew the LORD of his life, as a shepherd whose grace was sufficient for his needs.

Having a relationship with God does not mean that our wish list will be met, but we will have grace for today and hope for tomorrow. We will have the comfort of His forgiveness and the assurance of His unfailing love.

Jesus said in John 10:14, “I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me-just as the Father knows me and I know the Father-and I lay down my life for the sheep.” He also said, “My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me.”

Knowing Jesus as our Good Shepherd reveals the goodness of God and is a reason to give thanks in the Year of Gratitude.
