Like Sheep Without a Shepherd

Like Sheep Without a Shepherd is a prayer for God’s guidance. I hope this prayer-poem inspires you today.

Today’s post is the fifth one in the #write28days challenge, in which I’m participating during the month of February 2022. Today’s prompt is “Nesting,” and here is my prayer/poem.

Like Sheep Without a Shepherd

 

When we are like sheep without a shepherd

you are still watching over us, Lord

though we are scattered

vulnerable

confused

and helpless

as easy prey

for the enemy of our souls.

You gather us back to you

and lead us into battle

against evil

you have already overcome.

 

Jesus, when you looked

at the crowds who were like

sheep without a shepherd

you had compassion on them

and told your disciples

the harvest is great

but the workers are few

and you asked them to pray

for the Father

to send more workers

into his fields.

 

May you guide us

in our own humble journeys

of dependence

that we may be sent out

as workers in the fields

of so many helpless ones

who need to be gently guided

back to you.
