John 10
Jesus makes it very clear. He is the gate. Those who come in through him will be saved. He goes on to say that the good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. Once coming to Christ, the sheep learn how to listen to his voice. They hear His voice and follow him. It ways here that they follow him to green pastures. That speaks to me of good things. As we follow Jesus he will lead us to blessings and we will be satisfied with His goodness to us. He warns us about the hirelings that run when the wolf comes. They really don't love the sheep, just interested in fleecing them until trouble comes. I'm so blessed that Jesus is my shepherd. I can trust in his goodness towards me. In Psalm 23, He is my shepherd and meets all of my needs. We can trust in Him with confidence knowing that we are safe and secure as He watches over us!
