(Hebrews 13:20-21)
I am so glad that I have Jesus as my Shepherd. He is my "Good Shepherd" because He died to free me from sin.(John 10:11)
He is my "Great Shepherd" because He lives for me in heaven, working on my behalf. He is my "Chief Shepherd" because one day, He will come for me, and take me home to be with Him forever. If you will accept Jesus as your Savior, you can have these blessings as well.
But I know that I am not what I should be. The Lord is working in my life to make me complete in Him. I am like a broken fishing net that needs to be mended. Or a broken bone that needs to be set. Tenderly our Shepherd wants to make us whole, and equip us for this life, and the next.
To spiritually set our broken bones of our lives so we might walk straight and run our life-races successfully. We are like buildings that are still under construction. With faithful cooperation on our part, the Lord Jesus will be able to help us to be what He wants us to be.
And that is: Complete in every good work!
