Today’s Reflection:
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
Psalms 23:1 NKJV

For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin. Hebrews 4:15 NKJV

Heavenly Father, I want to thank You for the greatest gift You have ever given me, Jesus, in whom I have all I need. I am awed that the Word, our Creator, loved us so much that He chose to give up the glory of Heaven to become flesh and dwell among us. He is the Lamb slain before the foundations of the world, the great Shepherd, Immanuel, God with us. He was despised, rejected of men, a man of sorrows, aquainted with grief. He who knew no sin was wounded for our transgressions: for our iniquities bruised. He bore our griefs and sorrows, was afflicted and smitten for us so we may experience His forgiveness and peace. By His stripes we are healed. In all points tempted like us, yet without sin, He is more than able to comfort us. By His blood, we can overcome. In Jesus’ Name Amen
