Weekly Reflection
The Good Shepherd Calls us by Name
04-26-2026 | We Celebrate Worship Resource, Vol. 51, No. 1In our day, the word sheep can be a pejorative for people who are easily influenced and follow the herd without thinking for themselves. But that is not necessarily the case. People scorned as sheep may have exercised sound judgment in deciding whom to follow. As Christians, we are those sheep listening for the Good Shepherd’s voice. He calls us each by name to be his disciples. He summons us to vocations in which we can use our talents to serve him more fully. He leads us through the gate on right paths through dark valleys, protecting us from harm and forgiving us when we stray. He guides us to verdant pastures, to restful waters, and to a life abundant with God’s blessings. We are the sheep whom our Shepherd has called by name, and we have chosen to follow. We come together as a flock to worship God, to receive the Lord in the Eucharist, and to live under the guidance and protection of the Good Shepherd.
How do you hear the Good Shepherd calling you? Where is he leading you at this point in your life?
El Buen Pastor nos llama por Nuestro Nombre
En nuestros días, la palabra "oveja" puede tener una connotación peyorativa para referirse a aquellas personas que se dejan influenciar con facilidad y siguen al rebaño sin pensar por sí mismas. Sin embargo, no tiene por qué ser necesariamente así. Aquellas personas que son menospreciadas por considerárselas "ovejas" podrían haber ejercido, en realidad, un juicio sensato al decidir a quién seguir. Como cristianos, nosotros somos esas ovejas que escuchan la voz del Buen Pastor. Él nos llama a cada uno por nuestro nombre para que seamos sus discípulos. Nos convoca a vocaciones en las que podemos emplear nuestros talentos para servirle con mayor plenitud. Nos conduce a través del redil, por senderos rectos que atraviesan valles sombríos, protegiéndonos de todo mal y perdonándonos cuando nos extraviamos. Nos guía hacia verdes pastizales, hacia aguas de reposo y hacia una vida colmada de las bendiciones de Dios. Somos las ovejas a las que nuestro Pastor ha llamado por su nombre, y hemos elegido seguirle. Nos congregamos como rebaño para adorar a Dios, para recibir al Señor en la Eucaristía y para vivir bajo la guía y la protección del Buen Pastor.
¿Cómo escuchas al Buen Pastor llamándote? ¿Hacia dónde te está guiando en este momento de tu vida?
