“I am the good shepherd.” Jo10.14
Here is a word that we should speak to our hearts quite often. We may surely trust Christ to provide, protect and direct us each and every day into all goodness. He is the GOOD shepherd and never anything but good. This means of course that we must trust His provisions when He leads across dry and barren places. We may be sure He knows there are green pastures and still waters where He is taking us. We may sometimes feel His rod prodding our heels or on our back, for He will always herd us away from unseen dangers and from wolves that would prey upon our soul. He may direct us into unfamiliar valleys but He is always leading His sheep to the great mountains of delicious delight. The good shepherd only does that which is good for the sheep under His care. It is His own goodness that directs all the goodness He would have for us. If we are to fear no evil then let us speak these words to our heart. His goodness and mercy shall follow us, ALL, not just some of the days of our life. 5/26/2008 ts
