The Good Shepherd

"My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall NEVER perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand" ~ John 10:27-29

"I give my life for my sheep."
The strength and tenderness in the gestures of the Good Shepherd are always accompanied by a gaze of loving compassion. We are told in the Bible that He comes to find the lost sheep, to heal, protect, and bless - to save us all.

In the light of the Trinity, Christ feeds His sheep with his own Life poured out until the end of time.

“The Lamb will shepherd them and lead them to springs of life-giving water” (Rev 7:17)
