“The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want”. Psalm 23
Psalm 23 is probably the most treasured of the psalms. How many of us yearn to be shepherded by Jesus in such a way that there is nothing we could want? That would begin with hearing his voice…. “My sheep hear my voice; I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish. No one can take them out of my hand.” Jn 10:27 Jesus desires this relationship of radical trust with each of us. Can we want nothing more than to have Jesus as our Shepherd?

That we may listen for the voice of Jesus as our Shepherd and be willing to let go of what we may want, believing that what God wants for us is always best, we pray….
