"Don't Kick the Sheep If you Want to Keep them Close!" Ezekiel 34 is an expose of "bad shepherding." God was not happy with those who used the rod and staff to cause pain rather than rescue. To my peers in pastoral ministry; the need for patience and compassion has never been greater. The flock is already fretting. It is not wise to let your own frustrations to cause you to "kick the sheep."

The supernatural is not optional equipment for the New Testament church! We struggle with this because we feel inadequate. Let’s get over ourselves. In the scripture, Jesus convicted Simon Peter with a rooster, had an ass speak to the prophet Baalam, and rode triumphantly into Jerusalem on an ass. Guess what, in the realm of the supernatural - Jesus is still riding on donkeys. Let’s get out of our comfort zone and kick the tires on everything God has for the New Testament church!

God's leaders must not feel guilty they are not God, the Messiah or "super-heroes." Be faithful, grow in your ministry, develop people, and develop yourself but don't overload yourself. It is comforting to know some things God is intended to take care of. Let Him!
