Weekly Update - 5/23


Thank you Patrick for the message "I Am The Good Shepherd".  With the text from Psalm 23 and John 10.
  • The Good Shepherd knows what's best for his sheep.
  • He knows their needs.
  • He will do what he can to protect them.
  • The one sheep, that is lost, matters!
  • He rejoices when it is found.
Let's Remember:
  • While we are stubborn, HE is patient.
  • While we lose direction, HE can lead us.
  • While we make mistakes, HE offers forgiveness.
  • While we are defenseless, HE is our protector.
