We all know what it's like to feel distant from something we once held close, and often it happens without a single dramatic moment. Little compromises pile up, habits shift, and one day we realize how far we've drifted. Psalm 23:3 shows a shepherd who notices our wandering and doesn't wait for us to find our own way home. He comes looking, meets us in the middle of the mess, and leads us to the right path, the one that finally delivers what we've been searching for all along. Our hope was never in becoming better sheep, but in belonging to a shepherd who is faithful even when we are not.
