FILLS THEIR NEED In you readings from John’s Gospel this week you can see how Jesus Christ answers the needs of men. If you are hun gry, remember that he is the living bread. The thirsty turn to him for the water of life. Those in darkness discover that he is the light of the world. And those who so easily lose their way, like sheep without a shepherd, find in Christ their good shepherd. Read John 10:14-18. The good shepherd knows his sheep well enough to call each one by name. He guards and protects them as he leads them beside still waters and even through the valley of the shad ow of death. He seeks to save each one and is willing to give his life for his sheep. In such language Jesus described the love of God for every person. God does know your name. He is personally interested in you.
