Ezekiel 34:15-16

I myself will tend My sheep and have them lie down, declares the Lord GOD. I will seek the lost, bring back the strays, bind up the broken, and strengthen the sick.
A man in a checked shirt praying in a church, hands clasped together.

My Lord, how great is Your compassion. I am so prone to straying, letting bitterness or fear drive me away from Your presence. Yet You don’t abandon me to my own foolishness. Thank You for pursuing me when I am lost, for binding up the deep wounds of my heart, and for strengthening my weak spirit. I stop running today. I allow You to care for me and to give my restless soul the deep rest that only comes from You. Amen.
