As we find ourselves in the midst of this world that is
filled with much suffering and injustice, every person
needs hope for the future and we have to believe
there is a brighter day coming. Otherwise, we
would become so discouraged that we would give
up.
We can live with hope in God because whilst we
live in changing times, God is never-changing. God
is our sturdy rock in these unstable seasons and our
strong refuge when we are threatened. Jesus refers
to himself as the Good Shepherd. He is watching
over us like a shepherd who cares for his sheep and
loves them unconditionally as they are exposed to
constant dangers. Whilst God works through us to
meet one another’s needs on every level: spiritually,
emotionally, physically, as our shepherd, God assumes
the total responsibility for our wellbeing.
As the days in which we live grow increasingly darker,
we must look to God with a renewed confidence
that He has a perfect plan for our future. If
there is ever a time in your life when you need God
to be your Shepherd, it is now. Turn to Him by faith.
Put your trust in Him, and He will supply your every
need, today and always because God loves you
unconditionally.
Blessings,
Vuyelwa.
