DAILY?READINGS: Esther 1; Zechariah 11; Revelation 18

 

He shall feed His flock like a shepherd: He shall gather the lambs with His arm, and carry them in His bosom, and shall gently lead those that are with young. Isaiah 40:11

 

With tenderness, the God who holds the waters in His hand and exerts power over the universe, will gently shepherd His people during His earthly reign. Some render it: “He carries them close to His heart.” Such is the way of the Good Shepherd who always is tender towards His people. Although this promise is future, we may presently enjoy security in our merciful Lord. —Keith Keyser

There is rest for the weary soul,
There is rest in the Saviour’s love;
There is rest in the grace that has made us whole,
And that seeketh out those who rove. —J. N. Darby
