You’ve felt it—that cold moment when fear whispers, “Maybe you don’t belong.”
Shame, exhaustion, or silence from heaven makes you wonder if Jesus has forgotten your name.

But into that fear, Jesus speaks: “I am the Good Shepherd.”

This sermon explores the comfort of knowing that you are not forgotten, not forsaken, and not alone. You belong to Jesus because He already claimed you before time began, laid down His life for you, and still calls you by name through His Word, Sacraments, and Church.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Takeaways:

• Jesus dies for you not to possibly make you His own, but because you already belong to Him.
• Shame and doubt whisper “You don’t belong,” but Jesus answers, “You are Mine.”
• The Shepherd’s voice still speaks today through Word and Sacrament.
• You are kept by Christ’s mercy, not your performance.
• Belonging to Jesus means you always have a place to return to.
