Worship into the Week- Follow

 

Worship into the Week- Follow

Good Shepherd Sunday

1 Peter 2:19-25

It is a simple theme after Easter to fall

 into the "lead and follow" of New Life.

But, Peter reminds us that it is a more complicated process

 than we would like to live out daily.

He shares the vision of Jesus as example, healer and restorer.

For "we, like sheep, have gone astray."

Jesus is the one who has turned us back to the shepherd 

and guardian of our souls.

We do this "turn" in the midst 

of cultural callings and beckoning.

We seek to be winsome with the aroma of Christ

in a world that judges quickly and pushes back. 

Hard line and hard nose get us no where,

 except perhaps out the door.

The image of Jesus leading and within my own vision

 helps me to stay on track 

and not be swept to the side of distraction.

Lord, keep my sightline clear. Amen.
