DAILY READINGS: Leviticus 26; Psalm 140-141; Mark 10:32-52

Remember them which have the rule over you, who have spoken unto you the word of God: whose faith follow, considering the end of their conversation. Hebrews 13:7

The shepherds or elders in the local assembly have a heavy responsibility. As our Lord’s representative they must be His example to the flock they shepherd. They must be on guard for false teaching. They must care for the weak and strong, young and old, male and female, from all walks of life. Let us pray for them and their families. Let us help them with their work. Let us defend them when they have been falsely accused. Let us lovingly yield to their rule over us for they "watch out for the souls of the flock." —Bob Cretney

We are pilgrims on a journey; we’re together on this road.
We are here to help each other walk the mile and bear the load.—R. Gillard
