The Snow Plow You're Following - #6383
The Lord will never lead you anywhere that He has not first scouted and prepared for you. The snow plow clears the road ahead of you, and so does the Shepherd. And because He does, you'll never end up stuck.

I Know That Voice - #6280
You begin your day by getting used to His voice before you hear any others. Then, when you're getting six voices at once, you'll know your Shepherd's direction from all the rest. You'll sense the call - the tug of Jesus that you heard just this morning, and that you've heard so often. And you'll say, "I know that voice."

Christmas: what was so special about the Bethlehem shepherds and their lambs.
Hmm. Until last Sunday, I had spent a lifetime not knowing that the Bethlehem shepherds were not just ordinary shepherds. And the lambs they raised were not just ordinary lambs. At least, the first-born males weren’t.

A Leader's Real Assignment - #6055
Jesus was a shepherd, and now He's called you to be one, trusting you with some of the sheep that He died for. Is leadership worth the price you pay and the sacrifices you make? Listen to the bottom line in 1 Peter 5:4 , "And when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the crown of glory, that will never fade away."

Everything You Need For the Trip - #6042
The journey ahead, the white water ahead isn't about you and what you can do. It's about your Divine Outfitter, and Navigator, and Provider, and Protector, and Guide. It's not about you doing stuff for God. It's about God doing stuff through you! So what are you waiting for? What are you worrying for? Your job is pretty simple: stay pure and show up. The rest is up to Jesus.

Sheep Shoving - #5938
We like to be led. The destination the shepherd wants the sheep to go is the same, whether he's up front leading or behind pushing. What's different is how the sheep respond. If you have a sheep that isn't going where you're trying to take him or her, consider if part of the problem is the shepherd.

God's love in the Bible: Psalm 23
The most famous Psalm in all of the Bible: "The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want...." It's a perfect picture of God's love for His children, providing for their needs, keeping them safe from predators, and guiding them away from danger.

Arms in the Bible - a Christian perspective
Isaiah tells us that God is like a shepherd tending to his flock. He carries his lambs in his arms, close to his heart.

My sheep know my voice - a Christian perspective
Just as a flock of sheep recognizes the voice of their shepherd, so Christians will come to instantly recognize the voice and leading of Jesus Christ, their spiritual shepherd.

Shepherd in the Bible: Psalm 23:1
Calling God our shepherd means much more than putting us in a servant's role. No, the shepherd is responsible for all of the needs and wants of his flock. When the Psalmist declares that with the Lord as his shepherd he shall not be in want, he's saying that God is protecting and leading him in all things.
