For you were straying like sheep,

but have now returned to the Shepherd 

and Overseer 

of your souls.

1 Peter 2:25 ESV

Rest.

A lot of people seem to have (re)discovered the value of rest as we've been in restrictions in response to the threat of Covid 19.

We need someone or something to rest in. 

Pete reminds us that there is a Shepherd. 

Someone who not only can lead us to still waters, but is that water that we need.

He reminds us that there is an Overseer of our souls. 

Someone bigger.

Someone bigger who sees the landscape from a different perspective, who not only is for us, is good, and holy, and true.

Someone bigger who is looking out for our soul.

Someone bigger who we can find rest in, no matter what our circumstances, what we face, our very soul is seen, known, and loved.

Rest in the Good Shepherd, our souls Overseer.
