Kings Have Amor Bearers but Shepherds Have Sheep

1 Samuel 16:21 So David went to Saul and began serving him. Saul loved David very much, and David became his armor bearer.

The contrast of Saul the King and David the shepherds couldn’t be more stark. David in his humility is anointed for greatness and Saul in his arrogance has lost his anointing. Kings have amor bearers but shepherds have sheep. Often many of us in ministry lose our way. It is easy to mistake the respect that comes with a title with entitlement. Our calling is to be servants and shepherds. Jesus illustrates this when He washes the disciples feet. If Jesus didn’t have an amor bearer I don’t think I will either. 
Lord keep me humble 

Constantly create in me a shepherds heart

In Jesus Name
