John 10:1-18 - Knowing the Good Shepherd

I remember doing this about 3-4 weeks ago at the Bella Vista lake when the whole tribunal thing happened, but due to laziness it was never blogged.

A good shepherd is willing to lay down His own life, out of His own free will, to protect His flock.

I hate birds. When I was there, it was almost raining at around 4pm. All the birds in the area were flying back into their nest, and I was sitting there next to the lake freaking out. But in my fear, none of them dirtied me, or swooped me or anything. In the midst of the whole tribunal chaos, even though we spent so much effort trying to figure out every flaw in the case, in the end it was something unexpected that helped us through. Nothing's in our control, and we'll be safe in His arms always.
