Receive Your Compassionate Shepherd’s Care

Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on Jul 22, 2024

May the Holy Spirit work in us a deeper understanding of one of the ways our Good Shepherd provides compassionate care for us. He does that through the shepherds he sends to us. He does that to equip us for the life of service he calls us to live.
