Prayer of the day

What does the Lord require of us?
To love the Lord our God with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength and to love our neighbours as ourselves.
What is love? It looks like Jesus.
Lord, help us to be more patient and kind, remove jealousy, envy, anger and rage from us.
Let us not be boastful in ourselves and our possessions,
but to give away freely what we have freely received.
Love is not self-seeking, but looks after the needy, poor, lonely, and the widows and orphans.
Love looks to forgive those who have hurt us and doesn't keep a record of wrongdoings. God is love and God's love always protects, trusts, hopes, and perseveres.
God's love never ends. Amen.

I'm looking at the sheep God. Are you really a shepherd?
I can't see the shepherd. Is the shepherd really there?
The sheep seem to be happy, content.
They don't seem to be lacking at all. But I can't see the shepherd.
Some are lying down, but most are standing up, but they seem happy.
They are safe, they are fed, they are free from danger, but I can't see the shepherd.
Even though I can't see the shepherd, they must be there.
Feeding the sheep, caring for them, looking after them.
Does the shepherd spend much time with the sheep? I don't know.
What about me God? Are you there? I can't see you at the moment. Are you there?
I'm fed, I'm watered. I have plenty to eat, but are you there?
I can't see you.
You must be there. If you weren't there, what difference would it make?
Would I be fed? Would I be warm? Would I be safe? Probably not.
You are there, God. Just because I can't see you doesn't mean you are not there.
Thank you for being my shepherd.
