i am not the lost sheep, for You know exactly where i am. but i am a stupid one. i know i shouldn’t lag behind the flock or wander over to the edge of the cliff repeatedly to check how far we’ve come, but i do anyway. i’m weak and my wool falls into my eyes so i can hardly see You, but i make only half-hearted efforts to swipe it away. Father, i am not worthy of Your love in any way. but You give my hooves strength to keep following You. thank You, Jesus. please, keep me close to You. I will wipe this wool from my eyes and keep stumbling after You, no matter how much it costs. for You will be my strength and my song and my salvation.
