Kana Kahuhipa?
Yes, Kana Kahuhipa, Hawaiian for "His Shepherd". We are each called by God to our own appointed Ministry, in that we can take pride in doing the work which has been specifically set out before us. Mine happens to be in Preaching and Teaching, and while I might consider myself a Shepherd of sorts I am subordinate to the Good Shepherd as described in John 10. It is a reminder that we are first and foremost His Servants whatever the Mission or Occupation.
