When we neglect our own responsibility as sheep to help shape, mold, build the Body of Christ, as well as to help guide new converts of faith. As a pastor, I did not have a notion about God’s sheep, so I began my journey to discover how to shepherd God’s sheep. Much to my surprise, I found many different kinds of sheep: faithful and unfruitful sheep, gossiping sheep, lying sheep, sheep who cannot be trained, dishonest sheep, messy sheep, faithful sheep, blessed sheep, loving sheep, and more. We have so many different types of sheep of various levels of faith and commitment, but there is hope in the Body of Christ. Are you blessing to your pastor and leaders? Are you a sheep who brings joy or pain? This story is one of feelings and how our feelings cannot drive our relationship with God, because we have the mind of Christ. When we allow our minds to be in control then we are unfruitful to God and will become a tool for the enemy to plant seeds of bitterness. Our emotions are true, but they are an enemy to your purpose and the Will of God.
