Our good Shepherd

The fundamental challenge as a believer during this pandemic is not whether we have been separated from our church buildings but where are we in terms of our relationship of God. As we have not been able to physically gather into fellowship as we used to we can identify with the words of Jesus in Matthew 9:36 who sees our condition as being “like sheep being scattered, like sheep having no shepherd”. But not only Jesus has come to save those who are lost he is also here to restore those who have strayed. Therefore, when we are weak Jesus is still reaching out to to us and he wants us all to reach out to him as sheep in need of a shepherd.
