The Good Shepherd

20081213-shepherd-copyThe shepherd is an often used illustration of the life of faith in the Bible. For example, Psalm 23 begins, “The Lord is my shepherd.” Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob were all shepherds. So were Moses and David. Shepherds were the first to be told of the Lord’s birth, and the first to come and worship the babe in the manger.

Keeping with the imagery, Jesus refers to himself in John 10 as the good shepherd who “lays down his life for the sheep.” And in Matthew 18 he describes how much joy a shepherd has when he recovers one lost sheep, more joy than he has for the ninety-nine who didn’t wander off.

Today, shepherds in Israel aren’t much different than they were in the days of the New Testament. Sure, they may have cell phones and tennis shoes, but they still wander the hillsides leading and protecting their flock.

On your trip to Israel, you’ll have the opportunity to see shepherds in action and to learn more about the Good Shepherd, our Lord Jesus. Join a Discipleship Travel LLC group for an amazing journey of a lifetime in the footsteps of Jesus.

    First off I would like to say awesome blog! I had a quick question in which I’d like to ask if you do not mind. I was interested to know how you center yourself and clear your thoughts prior to writing. I’ve had a hard time clearing my thoughts in getting my ideas out. I do take pleasure in writing however it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are usually wasted simply just trying to figure out how to begin. Any recommendations or tips? Thank you!|

    Hey I know this is off topic but I was wondering if you knew of any widgets I could add to my blog that automatically tweet my newest twitter updates. I’ve been looking for a plug-in like this for quite some time and was hoping maybe you would have some experience with something like this. Please let me know if you run into anything. I truly enjoy reading your blog and I look forward to your new updates.|

    When I initially commented I clicked the “Notify me when new comments are added” checkbox and now each time a comment is added I get three e-mails with the same comment. Is there any way you can remove people from that service? Thank you!|
