The Shepherd and the Lamb

Outside the farm and ranch store I almost literally ran into a friend I had not seen in a while. She was bubbly, telling me about a new baby lamb.

β€œHe gets so excited when we come toward him with the bottle. His little behind just wiggles with expectation. He will let us hold him as he falls to sleep. He has such a sweet little voice. Do you want to see a picture?”

Of course, I wanted to see a picture of a cute wooly little white lamb, but what I saw was a thin, almost gray, dirty, limp-looking creature.

I was kind, wished her well, and then as I drove home, it dawned on me. The way she loves and looks at her lamb, is the way my Savior, my Shepherd, loves and looks at me. My Shepherd rescues me as she has rescued this lamb.

LWML has devotions to remind us of our Shepherd.

The LORD is my Shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures (Psalm 23:1–2a).
