Shepherds are one of God’s common examples of caring for others. In the church, leaders are called to shepherd God’s flock as a shepherd cares for his sheep—leading by example and education what it means to care for others as Christ cares for us; nurturing us as we grow in our faith; correcting us when we go astray; defending and protecting us from dangerous teaching. As members of a flock, it is our responsibility to pray for and hold our leaders up to God, asking them to be equipped to lead in a way God desires. Have you prayed for your leaders today?
