Reflecting His Love
In Mathew 25:31–32, we encounter a powerful picture of Jesus’ return. He will come in glory, with all the angels, seated on His throne, and He will separate people as a shepherd separates sheep from goats. This scene is not just about a future event—it calls us to examine our lives today.
The shepherd imagery is significant. In biblical times, sheep and goats often grazed together, but they had different natures. Sheep followed their shepherd’s voice, trusting and depending on him. Goats, however, were more independent. Jesus uses this imagery to remind us that it’s not enough to appear good on the outside—what matters is whether we are following Him in our hearts.
As Jesus calls us to reflect His love, we must ask: are we living as his sheep, obedient to His voice and showing love to others as He has shown to us? Serving others, especially those in need, is a way to follow Jesus and honor Him. Our actions toward the least of these are ultimately acts of service to Jesus Himself.
Psalm 55
English Standard Version
Cast Your Burden on the Lord
To the choirmaster: with stringed instruments. A Maskil[a] of David.

and in anger they bear a grudge against me.
4 My heart is in anguish within me;
the terrors of death have fallen upon me.
5 Fear and trembling come upon me,
and horror overwhelms me.
6 And I say, “Oh, that I had wings like a dove!
I would fly away and be at rest;
7 yes, I would wander far away;
I would lodge in the wilderness; Selah
8 I would hurry to find a shelter
from the raging wind and tempest.”
9 Destroy, O Lord, divide their tongues;
for I see violence and strife in the city.
10 Day and night they go around it
on its walls,
and iniquity and trouble are within it;
11 ruin is in its midst;
oppression and ...
