Pastor’s Chronicle
The readings for this Sunday use the figure of a shepherd to tell us the tender care and the wise constant guidance the Lord provides for those who trust in him. When the early Christians looked for an image to
reflect their relationship with Jesus and God the Father they turned to their Jewish book, the Book of Psalms.
In Psalm 23 they found what they believed to be a summary of how God had worked through Jesus to make
them his people.
The work of a shepherd was a difficult job that had more to do with chasing after straying sheep, tending them through long, cold, rainy days and nights, protecting them from wolves. The early Christians rejoiced that there was one divinely appointed Shepherd, Jesus Christ, leading them (the church) into the lush
green pastures of Heaven.
In the course of centuries, this psalm has won for itself a supreme place in religious literature of the
world. All who read it, whatever age, race, or circumstances, find in the quiet beauty of its thoughts a range
and depth of spiritual insight that both satisfies and soothes the soul. The psalm’s refrain “The Lord is my
shepherd; there is nothing I shall want,” is our fitting response to the Good Shepherd who has gathered us
close to himself this day.
Through our participation in the Eucharist, we realize we are not alone but belong to a vast, worldwide
flock. In thousands of churches throughout the world, we gather to pray for one another and for orphaned children, refugees driven from their homes by war, the homeless, the sick and dying, and all marginalized persons
who need advocates and a strong shepherd to defend them. In short, we move along together on our way to
the lush green pastures and restful waters to a home with the Lord.
