26 May 2024 - ENCS

Pastor Josh continued the series on Matthew today
About value, based on chapter eighteen he did say
Who is the greatest in heaven the disciples did ask
Calling a little child, Jesus Christ took them to task

Jesus said that only those who have faith like a child
Will end up in heaven and with the Lord be reconciled
For children are also willing followers, seemingly lowly
Jesus came not to lead but to serve, as we often see

Ergo, we must take care not to cause others to stumble
Although we have much power, we must remain humble
Watching where we go, what we do, and what we say
From sources of temptation, we must clearly stay away

The real message of the lost sheep in verse thirteen
Is the lone sheep’s isolation presents dangers unseen
God is our shepherd who doesn’t want any to perish
So saving lost sheep is something we should cherish

The shepherd’s voice often comes through other sheep
By sharing God’s word with others, His plan we do keep
Pastor Josh then showed how to do so with the SQ App
In “Proclaim", “The Good News” button we should tap

We should value little and lost ones, and lowly positions
Avoiding sights, words, and places with tempting conditions
We can receive the love of God, our Shepherd from above
Then with the rest of the world, show and share His love
