In your mind’s eye, see and hear a shepherd calling out to his sheep, and the sheep immediately responding to it. See the sheep willingly follow their protector and provider.

How well do you know the voice of your Shepherd? Explain.
Do you consider the choice path of your Good Shepherd to be trustworthy? Keep in mind His sacrificial love. Explain.

Put out into the deep water and let down your nets for a catch...and they filled both boats, so that they began to sink. But when Simon Peter saw that, he fell down at Jesus’ feet...(Luke 5:4-8).
Dear Lord,
May we never underestimate your power and your purpose. Thank you for allowing us to participate as we step out in faith and obey your voice. Overwhelm us with your unending love one more time today so we can then run and share it with others. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
