Called to be a good sheep!
Today is good shepherd sunday or vocations prayer day. Those who work in the vineyard of God are reminded of their special mission and call to be like Jesus the good shepherd. We are invited to reflect what it means to volunteer to serve God and his church. As parents, teachers, health workers, artisans etc we must look on Christ and discern how we ought to carry out our jobs as leaders.
You must be aware of wolves, false teachers who mislead people with their speculations. Those who have turned the Gospel into mere rhetorics, comic relief moments and even proposing false theories of salvation.
Jesus values you so much, little wonder he laid down his life for you. We must learn from him in discharging our responsibilities responsibly in whatever position we find ourselves.
If Christ is the Good Shepherd, are you a good sheep? Do you love him as much as He loves you? Are you equally prepared to lay down your life for him and others? Can you listen and follow even when it is uncomfortable for us to do? Are you prepared to obey him in all circumstances of life.
May you remain precious in his eyes Amen.
