Daily Diamonds – Commands of Christ: Feed My Sheep

“Feed my sheep.” – John 21:17 (ESV)

📜 The Command

After Peter’s failure, Jesus restored him with this commission: love for Christ must overflow in care for His people.

🕊 Theological Depth

• Pastoral Care – Shepherding is the heart of ministry (1 Peter 5:2–4).
• Proof of Love – Love for Christ is proven in service to His flock, not just in words.

🗝 Word Study

• Feed – Greek: boskō (βόσκω, BOS-ko) – to nourish, provide pasture, sustain.

💎 Diamond of Truth

True love for Jesus cannot neglect His sheep. To serve His people is to serve the Shepherd Himself.

💬 Reflect and Respond

• How am I actively caring for Christ’s people?
• Is my love for Jesus visible in love for His church?
