He’s Got You!
The Lord cares for his nation, just as shepherds care for their flocks. He carries the lambs in his arms, while gently leading the mother sheep.
Isaiah 40:11 (CEV)
Yeah, you know it’s part of the job and you know you will survive and all, but still—deployments are the worst. Being a Military kid puts you in situations that can leave you feeling alone. And it’s really, really hard.
But God is your good shepherd. When you can’t pick up the phone to talk to your dad, when your mom is struggling with her own challenges, when they aren’t even on the same continent and have a lot more urgent things to deal with . . . God promises he is with you. He will comfort you. He will protect you. He will guide you. He will provide for you. He will hold you. And he can do it in ways even your parents never could.
He is your shepherd. You are his sheep. He’s got you!
Sometimes he takes care of you through other people. Other times God shows his care by giving you the strength, courage, and wisdom you need. Though you would never ask for hardships, seeing God work in your life through tough times makes it worth it. And no matter how you feel or what things look like, you can know God is carrying you through.
SPIRITUAL FITNESS TRAINING
God is your shepherd and takes care of you in many ways. You can take care of others in both big and small ways, too. Could you help your parent by loading the dishwasher without being asked? Does your younger sibling want to practice soccer kicks with you? Does the neighbor’s kid need a math tutor? Helping others pleases God—and even helps you! Ask God who you can help today. On some paper or in a journal, keep track of the ways you show kindness each day of this week.

“The only safe place for a sheep is by the side of his shepherd, because the devil does not fear sheep; he just fears the Shepherd.”
