Getting to Know the Shepherd Devotion (The Story)


I'm a member of a Facebook group called, Christian Faith Warrior & Faith Happy Planner, War Binder, Faith Journal (no longer in existence).  It was a fellowship of Christians who endeavored to express their faith, trust, and belief in God through Planning, Journaling, and similar endeavors.

This past week, one of the members asked if there was a lent list coming up.  She was asking if there was a Scripture Writing plan for the Lent season.  I responded with “We don't have one, but I might be able to put one together.”  I was urged in my spirit to add that I might be able to put one together.  I hadn’t intended on adding that portion, but I did.

In all honesty, I was hoping they would say, “No, that’s okay.”  But, as God would have it, they said they wanted one.  So, I prayed and asked God to give me something, and God being God, did just that.

It was 10:42 PM on Wednesday night when ideas started hitting me left and right.  I was in the bed with the lights off and ready to go to sleep, but I couldn’t stop the flow of the spirit.  I got up and wrote everything that came into my spirit, including doing research on my phone.  It ended around 12:26 AM, Thursday morning.
God is so amazing.  On Thursday, my place of employee was closed and I didn’t have to go into work.  So, my staying up late wasn’t a bad thing.  God always has a plan.

It went through three revision changes in the content before it was finally done.  What I have now, isn’t what I started with.  It looks totally different.

Please download it for yourself.  Also, please share the link (http://get2nodashepherd.ddboone.info/) to this post with your family, friends, and enemies.

Be sure to come back every day for extra items related to the devotion.

I pray this devotion blesses you.
