And I will give you shepherds after my own heart, who will guide you with knowledge and understanding. [Jeremiah 3:15 (NLT)]

I offer this prayer for Christians everywhere, but especially for our pastors, teachers and missionaries. Enlighten them with your word and enrich their faith. Encourage them in their work and empower them as they witness and teach. May their lives be good examples and may their flocks respond positively to their leadership and lessons.
