It feels like everywhere we look we see things that constantly divide us. It’s not just in the things of this world, but we see division in the church. Divisions in church take our attention away from the mission God has called all Christian to do, make disciples of all nations. As Christians we all are united in faith in Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior. Let’s focus on sharing what Christianity is centered on, Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior.

We hear so many mixed messages of what love is. Popular songs from the past decades or even more contemporary ones tell of what love can and should be; poems, memes, and other influences also are commonly read and seen; even our own emotions and feelings strive to tell us what love is and should feel like. Despite all these mixed messages, our Lord tells us how we are
to know real and perfect love. In our Epistle we hear, “By this we know love, that Jesus laid down
His life for us” (1 John 3:16). Today, we focus on the fact that as our Good Shepherd, Jesus has laid down His life for His sheep. By that sacrifice on the cross and Easter victory, we can rejoice in a perfect love that lasts and an unconditional love that forgives as our Good Shepherd continues to guide, lead, and direct us through all our days.
