guidance and protection

IMG_1875Ezekiel 34

This prophecy is a corollary to Psalm 23.  In the psalm, David reflects his trust in God, his shepherd.  In this prophecy, the LORD reveals what he will do for his sheep, and what he will do to the false shepherds, the rulers in the land, who are feeding on the sheep instead of taking care of them.  The only things sheep really need are guidance and protection.  When the rulers of the land refused to provide this, the LORD steps up.  He promises to guide them back from exile, and restore them to peace.

LORD, thank you for your guidance and protection.
