John 10:11-13

Jesus declares Himself the Good Shepherd, who knows, guides, and protects His flock.  Sheep are silly!  They need care, guidance, and protection.  We are dependent on Christ for direction, sustenance, and safety. Jesus is a loving shepherd who is intimately involved in our lives. He knows your name, your struggles, and your heart.  Jesus laid down His life for us, taking upon Himself the punishment we deserved, so that we can live in freedom and peace.  Our Shepherd will never abandon us and leads us safely to eternal life.
