WALKING WITH JESUS • DAY 14 • PRAYER OF THE DAY
A Prayer for Following the Good Shepherd
Good Shepherd, I want to follow You. But I confess that sometimes I do not know which way to go, and other times I know but hesitate because the path looks uncertain.
Thank You that You do not drive me from behind. You go before me. Every step I take, You have already walked. Every valley I enter, You have already passed through. Every mountain I face, You have already climbed.
Teach me to recognise Your voice above all others. Quiet the noise of the world, the clamour of my fears, and the demands of my day so that I can hear You clearly. When I am tempted to wander, draw me back with Your gentle hand. When I am afraid, remind me that You are near.
I am Your sheep, and I trust my Shepherd. Lead me today in the way I should go. In Jesus’ name, amen.
