My Dear St. Cyprian Family,

Are you a sheep without a shepherd?

There is a beautiful message in today’s readings from Scriptures. God says, “I myself will gather my sheep.” “I myself will be their good shepherd.” This means that God cares for us in moments when we feel that we do not have shepherds who really care for us. God himself has promised to be our shepherd.

There is also another aspect in today’s message, which is equally important. The first reading tells us: “I will appoint shepherds who will shepherd my sheep, so that they need no longer fear and tremble, and none shall be missing, says the Lord.”

Think of a time when someone gave you a hand when you needed it, or an unexpected smile, or a good laugh when you were down, or even said “God bless you!” when you sneezed. If you can think of such a moment, God has fulfilled his promise to appoint you a shepherd. Now try also to think of a moment when you were the one who said a little prayer for someone, or offered a word of encouragement, or gave your attention to someone who was feeling ignored. If you can think of such a moment, God has fulfilled his promise to appoint you a shepherd.

Let us continue to be shepherds after the heart of Jesus, our Good Shepherd.

Blessings, Fr. Vincent
