In this powerful message, we explore the profound symbolism of Jesus as the Good Shepherd, drawing from John 10:1-10. Through this vivid imagery, we uncover the depths of Jesus’ love and care for us, his sheep. We are reminded that the Good Shepherd knows each of us intimately, calling us by name and leading us with his gentle voice. As we tune our hearts to follow him, we discover the abundant life he offers – a life of salvation, peace, and soul-deep satisfaction. Though the thief seeks to steal, kill, and destroy, we can trust in the Good Shepherd’s protection and guidance, finding security and rest in his presence. Let us be encouraged to draw near to our Shepherd, listening for his voice amidst the distractions of the world, and boldly stepping into the fullness of life he invites us to embrace.
