Then spend time worshipping, reading Scripture, and reflecting on how it applies to your life. Journaling what God speaks to your heart will help make this time even more meaningful.
We encourage you to join us for our worship and prayer meetings January 22-24 from 6:45pm to 7:45pm.

Bible Reading Plan
We encourage you to start each morning with our Community Bible Reading Plan to grow together in meaningfully connecting with God through His Word. We are walking through all four gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John) reading one chapter a day, paired with a Psalm. Each morning, our daily 10 minute podcast will guide you through an intentional time with God reflecting on a specific portion of the daily reading and guiding you through the Lord's Prayer (Matthew 6:9-13).

Scripture Reading
Psalm 23
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters. He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
Reflection / Application
As we begin this week of seeking God, express your desire for more of God in your life. Reflect on the fact that He is your good shepherd. Declare all the ways that He has led you, provided for you, and cared for you.

Scripture Reading
John 10:11-15
I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. He who is a hired hand and not a shepherd, who does not own the sheep, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and flees, and the wolf snatches them and scatters them. He flees because he is a hired hand and cares nothing for the sheep. I am the good shepherd. I know my own and my own know me, just as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep.
Reflection / Application
Jesus is the good shepherd who laid his life down. His relationship with us is not contractual like a hired hand. Take a moment to reflect on how Jesus is your perfect savior who truly knows you and truly loves you.
