Let’s Band Together!

I’m glad you’re here! It’s been some time in the making and I’m finally at the place “go for it, you can do it, start that blog!” I’ve come along way from the negative “you’ll look like a fool” – even though I will probably look like a fool in these postings but thanks be to God for His grace & mercy will surely cover!!

I chose the site name ‘Band of Shepherds’ for a scripture that has deeply touched my life – Isaiah 31:4-5

4 For thus the Lord said to me,
As a lion or a young lion growls over its prey,
    and—when a band of shepherds is called out against it—
is not terrified by their shouting
    or daunted at their noise,
so the Lord of hosts will come down
    to fight upon Mount Zion and upon its hill.
⁵ Like birds hovering overhead, so the Lord of hosts
    will protect Jerusalem;
he will protect and deliver it,
    he will spare and rescue it.

While in the depths of despair, hopelessness, confusion, temptation, and pain – the Lord comes. As a Lion He saves. And He saves by his Word and your personal faith but also through His shepherds who tend to the flock. Who can be wise counsel in love and generosity to help rescue His sheep.

My journey is like this – trust in our Savior and help of brothers and sisters in Christ. Through healing of my soul and renewal of my spirit. God is alive so pick up that bible, pray, ask him to take you to scripture and for an answer and just open up the book of truth – you’ll uncover your own personal version of the Bible and all the things God has in store for you. And He’ll send you shepherds to help you on this journey….

I hope to hear from you and I pray God’s guidance for this blog (yes, I need your prayers too please!! :). We’re not alone so share your story!
