Today's Wednesday, August 5, 2020, and here is your daily devote. As wayward is sinful sheep, we need the good shepherd who opens the doorway for us to come home, who leads us on the right path and who laid down his life so we could be saved. He saves all who believe in him, and now we have the joy of helping other wayward sheep come home by proclaiming the gospel of our good shepherd. The thing about lost in wayward sheep is that they don't necessarily know they're lost.
They are just roaming about completely clueless of the dangers surrounding them as they look for that next blade of grass to eat. We know people in our lives just like that. They don't know they are lost. They haven't considered the consequences of their decisions.
They are simply wanting to move from one moment's area and fleeting pleasure to the next, while never willing to stop and consider that there has to be more to life than this. As rescued sheep ourselves, let's set out to help these fellow sheep move closer in the direction of the good shepherd than away from him. Think about this. How can we, as sheep, join the good shepherd in his mission of taking care of his sheep?
