The Good Shepard

The Good Shepherd—the one who leaves the ninety-nine to find the one—is the perfect picture of relentless love and divine compassion. He does not abandon even a single soul, no matter how far it has wandered or how lost it may seem. His heart is moved by mercy, not by numbers. Every life matters to Him, every voice is heard, and every tear is seen.

He is the Shepherd who knows His sheep by name. He calls to us in the wilderness, guiding us back to safety when we’ve strayed too far. When we are weary, He doesn’t scold or condemn; instead, He lifts us onto His shoulders and carries us home. His strength is not harsh or domineering—it is tender, patient, and full of grace. In His arms, we find rest.

The Good Shepherd embodies the purest form of compassion. He doesn’t love us because we are perfect; He loves us because we are His. His love is not conditional or fleeting—it is steadfast, unchanging, and eternal. It is a love that restores, renews, and redeems.

Through His love, we find our strength. When we feel broken, He makes us whole. When we feel weak, His love becomes our power. He teaches us that true strength is not found in self-reliance but in surrender—trusting that His grace is enough for every need.
