Readings for Celebrating Advent

¹¹ “‘This is what the Lord God says: I, myself, will search for my sheep and ·take care of [look after; or look for] them. ¹² As a shepherd ·take care of [looks after; or looks for] his scattered flock when ·it is found [or they are with him], I will ·take care of [look after; or look for] my sheep. I will ·save [rescue] them from all the places where they were scattered on a cloudy and dark day.
