Ezekiel 34 · Grade 3

I Will Seek Them Out

Name Date

Read the Story

God was upset with Israel's leaders. They were like bad shepherds. They took care of themselves, but not the sheep. The sheep got lost and scattered.

God said he himself would search for his sheep. He would gather them and bring them to good grass. He would find the lost and help the hurt.

God promised one shepherd, his servant David, to care for them. He would send showers of blessing at the right time.
