Reading for today: 1 Samuel 17:12-18 and Romans 13:2-5
“David was the youngest. And the three oldest followed Saul. But David occasionally went and returned from Saul to feed his father’s sheep at Bethlehem.”
1 Samuel 17:14-15
David was faithful in tending and protecting his father’s sheep. When a wild animal stole a sheep from the flock, he went after the animal to save the sheep. David’s faithfulness to his father’s flock is a picture of Jesus’ faithfulness toward His Father’s flock. Our Lord sent His Son to save us, and He continues to protect us and tend to our every need. All we have to do is ask!
