The Good Shepherd
from Hope Christian Fellowship Hosted by Hope Christian Fellowship
Most of us know the pain of following someone that proved to be untrustworthy. Humans struggle with power because it seems to always grab the part of us that is self-centered and ready to use whatever power we have for our own purposes. Whether you agreed to follow that person or not, the feeling of injustice is unbearable. Those in power can take our money, our freedoms, and bring unwanted change to our lives without our consent. What does our Creator think of this? As we celebrate Christmas, we should know that our God sees and that He has an answer for those who use power to do evil. In fact, a prophet hundreds of years before Jesus was born had something to say on this very topic. It turns out that Jesus’ birth was the start of God’s answer to those in charge who use their power to do what is wrong. One reason we celebrate Christmas is because God Himself will address wicked leaders and step into their place as the Good Shepherd.
