S2E14 - Spiritual Drift, Psalm 23, and The Good Shepherd

Send us Fan MailThe disciples who witnessed Jesus feed 5,000 people later failed to recognize Him walking on water, thinking He was a ghost. This reveals how we can be close to Jesus yet struggle to recognize Him in difficult circumstances. When we focus primarily on the benefits of following Jesus rather than knowing Him personally, our hearts can become hardened through pain, disappointment, or pride. Like sheep needing a shepherd, we must acknowledge our dependence and cultivate genuine relationship with Jesus. Recognition requires moving beyond studying about Him to actually beholding and being transformed by who He is.
