Acts 11:1-18; Psalm 42; John 10:1-10

Leading us

A good shepherd lays down his life for his sheep. Today there are many shepherds and many flocks. Which flock is ours? A shepherd leading us to worldly fame, dollars galore, control of the media? All these other shepherds are plausible, charismatic, ego-building. Our true shepherd leads us to an eternal life of peace, happiness and joy with God, his angels and saints. If we trail along after other shepherds we may become lost, but our Shepherd will come looking for us. We also have the Shepherdess, Our Lady of
Fatima, with her words of wisdom and warning.
