Expressions of Faith: Astray

For “you were like sheep going astray,” but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.

(1 Peter 2:25 NIV)

Astray

Peter reminds us that we were once natural, clueless sheep . . .

. . . sheep wandering around where we shouldn't have been at all.

Sheep that follow whatever’s in front of them even though those leading have no more idea of what is the right thing than the sheep does.

Now read that personalized!

Like sheep we follow whatever’s in front of useven though those leading have no more idea of what is the right thing than we do.

But

Peter closes by reminding us that we have a shepherd who knows what sheep need.

Thank you, Lord for being The Good Shepherd for a sheep like me!
