Subject: The Shepherd's Call (06/16/'24) -Message

Subject: The Shepherd's Call Dear Friends, Jesus is a shepherd to the doomed, a beacon in the darkest room, guiding the lost with a love that transcends despair. He tends to the pasture, a flock doomed to slaughter, their cries echoing like the murmuring of distant waters. "Go rather to the lost sheep," He commands, His voice a balm to weary souls. "As you go, preach this message clear: 'The Kingdom of Heaven is near.'" In this mission, heal the sick with tender care, raise the dead from their cold graves of sorrow. Cleanse the lepers, drive out the shadows that haunt the night. Freely you have received this grace, freely give in every place, for in giving, we find the essence of His love. The shepherds of the flock, doomed to fall, answer the sacred call with hearts pure and unwavering. From Zechariah's prophetic sight to Matthew's echo in the night, these shepherds tend to the broken and weak, enduring with faith and love. Jesus, the shepherd of the lost, guides us no matter the cost. In the pasture of the broken, amidst the weak, we seek His voice, His love. The shepherd's call is clear, a beacon in the darkness, a promise of the Kingdom of Heaven near. May we all heed this call and spread His light in every corner of the world. Blessings, Pastor Steven G. Lee (June 14, 2024)
