Use the proper way in and care for the people entrusted to you

Choose whatever route gets you the role fastest

Stay outside the work so you can avoid responsibility

Keep control for yourself and worry about care later

If you would like to receive Jesus, pray this with me: Lord Jesus, I confess that I have sinned and gone my own way. I need you to lead me and keep me. I believe you died for my sins and rose again. I turn from my sin and trust you as my Lord and Savior. Come into my life, forgive me, and make me yours. Amen.

Come to My Shepherd

Lord, revive your Church so we come to you in your way, not by shortcuts or pride. Make us careful with the people you entrust to us, gentle with the weak, and faithful in our care. Give pastors, teachers, and every believer a true shepherd heart that reflects you. Stir us awake to serve with integrity and love, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Renew Your Church's Shepherd Heart

Father, I confess that I sometimes want the path of service without the patience of obedience. Forgive me for trying to force my way, and teach me to enter in a way that honors you and blesses others, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Forgive My Shortcuts

Give thanks for Jesus, the true shepherd who comes in the right way and cares for the flock. Thank God for faithful caregivers, mentors, and leaders who serve with humility and love.

Thank You for True Care

Pray for church leaders, parents, mentors, and caregivers to serve with honesty, humility, and tenderness. Ask God to keep them from selfish motives and make them protective of those entrusted to them.

For Those Who Lead and Protect

Pray by naming one place where you need to lead, serve, or make a decision. Ask God for the honest path, the right timing, and a caring heart as you step forward.

Ask for a Faithful Way Forward
