“Take Care of My Sheep.”(John 21:16)

"16 Again Jesus said, “Simon son of John, do you love me?”

He answered, “Yes, Lord, you know that I love you.”

Jesus said, “Take care of my sheep.”(John 21:16)

Greetings,

Jesus was speaking with Peter candidly.  He was getting Him to understand that love means action.  Jesus want love in the form of taking care of those who follow Him.  Jesus wanted His followers to be fed spiritually, warned of deceitful practices or teachings from others, and also wanted them to grow to be like Him.  I believe Peter got this message by reading 1 & 2 Peter.

Challenge:  Let us follow these spoken through Peter:

2 Be shepherds of God’s flock that is under your care, watching over them—not because you must, but because you are willing, as God wants you to be; not pursuing dishonest gain, but eager to serve; 3 not lording it over those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock. 4 And when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the crown of glory that will never fade away.

In His Service,

Pastor Catisha
