In Ezekiel 34,
there is the promise of a new Shepherd for the lost sheep. This is Good
News. We are more than lost sheep. We are the Lord's sheep. Without the
Lord, we are lost. In Him, we are found. God says, "I will search for
My sheep Myself and I will look after them" (Ezekiel 34:11). We read
this, and our thoughts turn to Jesus, who came to seek and to save the
lost. Jesus is the Good Shepherd, who laid down His life for us. He is
the Great Shepherd, who rose from the dead for us. He is the Chief
Shepherd, who is coming again for us. The Lord says to us, "You, My
sheep, are the sheep of My pasture." He says to us, "I am your God"
(Ezekiel 34:31).
