Fixing the injuries.



Ezekiel 34:15–16

I myself will tend my sheep and have them lie down, declares the Sovereign Lord. I will search for the lost and bring back the strays. I will bind up the injured and strengthen the weak, but the sleek and the strong I will destroy. I will shepherd the flock with justice.

God's people were led astray by terrible leaders and wicked kings. They needed a reset.

The modern voices that call for attention are hardly better. You need someone to lead you back to the flock.

God himself acts as your shepherd. He promises to bind up your heart-hurt and guide you back to his care.

Rest easy. Your Good Shepherd is in control of everything.

When have you found yourself in need of spiritual help? How does God shepherd your heart?
