TODAY’S WORD…

.

Jesus said,

“Very truly I tell you,

I am the gate for the sheep.”

.

– John 10:7 (NIV)

.

.

.

REFLECTION…

.

Christ calls Himself the “gate“.

He is the only “gate”

through which shepherds and sheep safely enter and exit the sheepfold.

.

He is a gate

open for the passage and communication of goodness and truth

as we welcome these into our hearts

and then pass them on to others.

.

Christ is both the Gate and the Shepherd,

He is all things.

.

What greater security have we

than having the Lord Jesus between us and evil?

In Him we place our full trust,

in Him who is the great Mediator between God and man.

.

.

.

REPETITIVE PRAYER FOR TODAY…

.

O Lord, Gate of Goodness and Truth,

lead me towards You, that I may find protection and peace.
