There will be times when we
will drift off from our first love, Jesus our Shepherd. We will wander until we reach the precipice
out of curiosity and fascination on the enticing view of the world below, of
Satan’s invitation, on the palatable appearance of wolves dressed as sheep like
us.
And so we will get drawn to
their (false) companionship, listen to every lie they say, believe every
promise they make.
But being the wolves that
they are, they will break our foolish and stupid vulnerable hearts, shatter our
dreams, and put our hopes to waste. With head bowed and spirit bruised, we weep
with remorse. Jesus our Healer finds us
and binds our wounds. His rebukes of
love are by far sweeter than the sweetest thing on earth. Our wandering has
caused us pain and trouble, yet He will restore us, take us in His arms, and
bring us home.
“Then, what soul is not
sometimes hurt, wounded, torn –by the wild beasts of temptation? Sin is a
fearful thing. It wounds the soul—and no hand but Christ’s can restore it. But
if we put our hurt life into His hand, He will give healing. What millions of
sin’s woundings has our Good Shepherd cured!” J. R. Miller
