Whether Peter loves him more than the others do

Whether Peter remembers the breakfast they shared

Whether Peter has already settled his conflict with the others

Care steadily for someone vulnerable or easily overlooked

Keep your devotion private and avoid responsibility for others

Wait until you feel fully qualified before helping anyone

Compare your service with others and try to outdo them

If you would like to receive Jesus, pray this with me: Lord Jesus, you know me completely, and I need your mercy. I admit that I have sinned and tried to live apart from you. I turn from my sin and believe that you died for me and rose again. I confess you as Lord and trust you to lead my life. Teach me to love you and to follow you in truth. Amen.

Come to Jesus in Honest Faith

Lord, revive your Church to love you with honesty and to care for the people you entrust to us. Deliver us from comparison, from empty words, and from serving ourselves. Make us faithful shepherds of the young, the weak, and the overlooked, and wake us up to answer your call with love in action, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Wake Your Church to Love and Care

Thank God for the kindness of Jesus who asks personal questions, knows our hearts, and still invites us to love him. Give thanks that he does not abandon us, but speaks, listens, and entrusts real care to ordinary people.

Thank You for Knowing My Heart

Pray by naming one place where your love for Jesus feels weak or mixed, then ask him for a truer answer, a steadier trust, and one person to care for this week.

Pray for a Truer Love

Lord, bless parents, mentors, pastors, teachers, and every quiet servant who cares for your little ones. Give them patience, discernment, tenderness, and joy as they look after the people placed in their care, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Strength for Those Who Care for Your Lambs

Praise Jesus for his gentle authority: he knows us, asks us, and calls us into loving service. Worship him for being the one who can search the heart and still entrust his lambs to our care.

Worship Jesus for His Gentle Authority

John 21 : 15 - Love, Restoration, Shepherding

When, therefore, they had finished breakfast, Jesus  says to Simon Peter, “Simon, son of John, do you love Me more than these?” He says to Him, “Yes, Lord ; You know that I love You.” He says to him, “Feed My lambs.”
