Jesus is the Good Shepherd who leads us into life to the full. He does this by dying in our place for our sins: He lays down His life for His sheep. In this and this alone is true peace and hope, something I know from my own life experiences of wrestling with darkness and depression.
Would you lay down your life for Jesus or when persecution and false teaching come will you flee like a hired hand? Ultimately, only Jesus can open our eyes and the eyes of those we love to the wonders of His mercy and love - do you pray for Him to do so each day?
