Opis

God's shepherding care relates to all areas of life. When sheep are truly cared for they do not lack but live an abundant life. Tending sheep is work and requires alertness and diligence regarding the condition of the flock. The condition of the flock is often dependent upon the faithfulness of the shepherd. The condition of the shepherd has a great deal to do with his or her relationship to the Lord. Sheep are not like other foraging animals that will send out scouts and lead the herd to food. It is said that sheep will die in a pasture that has been grazed out with fresh pasture right over the next hill. Sheep must be led to their food. Sheep have never been known to be able to find their way home if they are lost. Dogs and other animals can often do this. However, the nature of sheep is to make all of the wrong choices when it comes to guidance. They need someone to lead them back to the safety of the fold. God's people, like sheep, are in need of shepherding care. When you compare all of the verses that we have read about sheep and shepherds you realize the need for shepherds. The following chart demonstrates the condition of people with and without true shepherds.
