Jesus used this metaphor to communicate with his followers. The survival of sheep depends on the existence of a shepherd who cares.
“I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd sacrifices his life for the sheep. A hired hand will run when he sees a wolf coming. He will abandon the sheep because they don’t belong to him and he isn’t their shepherd. And so the wolf attacks them and scatters the flock. The hired hand runs away because he’s working only for the money and doesn’t really care about the sheep.
“I am the good shepherd; I know my own sheep, and they know me, just as my Father knows me and I know the Father. So I sacrifice my life for the sheep. I have other sheep, too, that are not in this sheepfold. I must bring them also. They will listen to my voice, and there will be one flock with one shepherd.”
John 10: 11-16 (NLT).

Marsha Blackburn looked absolutely radiant and beautiful last night at her victory celebration in Knoxville—she exuded pure confidence and strength as she accepted the Republican nomination. So thrilled she’s on track to make history as #Tennessee’s first female governor! 🇺🇸 #MarshaBlackburn @VoteMarsha
Greetings 👋
God is the faithful one. Gliding with God is effortless. Let’s seek His perfect and not permissive will.
“Show me the right path, O Lord; point out the road for me to follow.
Lead me by your truth and teach me, for you are the God who saves me. All day long I put my hope in you.”
Psalm 25: 4-5 (NLT).
