The Sheep Of His Pasture

Good Morning Everyone,


Each day as I am on the internet, meeting people,
chatting with them, one thing is so crystal clear,
so resounding within my spirit.

Many talk about God, many fight about Him,
many deny Him, but those who know the Shepherd
speak in a different voice.

It is one that is humble, compassionate, not
self centered, one who is longsuffering, kind, forgiving,
one who lifts the name of Jesus, and not anything else
above it.

For those who have developed a servants heart
there is a crystal clear viewpoint.

He must increase, but I must decrease.

Let us be mindful each day... we are the sheep of His pasture,
He is in charge. We are on a journey He bestowed upon
us, make your light so shine before men, that they
see your good works, and glorify your Father in heaven.
We only have one life,
and this one life is our chance to serve or reject Him.

Being a sheep is glorious.. we have a shepherd who
watches over us constantly, and cares about all our
needs.

Speak so that others see Jesus in you and long
for the shepherd of your soul.. to be their shepherd also.

love

Endless recitations and mumblings of vain repetitions
of doctrinal divides do not bring the Lamb of God
to people.. only talking about the gospel of Christ
will draw people to God. The rest of it.. is vanity.

Let God be God.. we.. are the sheep of His pasture.
Following, submitting, seeking His pleasure and guidance.

If our gospel be hid, it is hid to those who are lost, and
then, we have not done our job for our Shepherd, and
some soul may remain lost.. because we did not listen
to the call upon our life.

I KNOW THE SHEPHERD

There was once a Shakespearean actor who was known everywhere for his one- man shows of readings and recitations from the classics. He would always end his performance with a dramatic reading of Psalm 23.

Each night, without exception, as the actor began his recitation - "The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want"…the crowd would listen attentively. And then, at the conclusion of the Psalm, they would rise in thunderous applause in appreciation of the actor's incredible ability to bring the verse to life.
But one night, just before the actor was to offer his customary recital of Psalm 23, a young man from the audience spoke up. "Sir, do you mind if tonight I recite Psalm 23?" The actor was quite taken back by this unusual request, but he allowed the young man to come forward and stand front and center on the stage to recite the Psalm, knowing that the ability of this unskilled youth would be no match for his own talent.

With a soft voice, the young man began to recite the words of the Psalm. When he was finished, there was no applause. There was no standing ovation as on other nights. All that could be heard was the sound of weeping. The audience had been so moved by the young man's recitation that every eye was full of tears. Amazed by what he had heard, the actor said to the youth, "I don't understand. I have been performing Psalm 23 for years. I have a lifetime of experience and training - but I have never been able to move an audience as you have tonight. Tell me, what is your secret?"
The young man quietly replied, "Well sir, you know the Psalm...I know the Shepherd."

I have often felt that many things that bring us to our knees,
teach us while we are down there to learn to pray.






These possibilities are open to everyone.
Don't tell God you are not good enough, do what He asks.
Don't tell God to send someone else, He asked you.
Don't tell God you don't have time to pray, He said seek me first.
Don't neglect the things of God. He said we are to
pick up His cross daily and follow Him.
Don't tell God anything is bigger than His ability.
God is the Great I Am, I am whatever you need.

There is no pit so deep, God's love is not deeper still.

Not my will but thine oh Lord.
