I’m sorry my Saturday posts have been sporadic. Editing a book is real work. The book cover always gives me sleepless nights, because out of my six books only one was approved by Kindle Direct Publishing on the first upload. I still have so much to learn as my own publisher! Below is a snippet […]

“‘He flees because he is a hired hand and cares nothing for the sheep. I am the good shepherd. I know my own and my own know me, just as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep’” (John 10:13-15 English Standard Version). Lord God, how can we not […]

“He who is a hired hand and not a shepherd, who does not own the sheep, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and flees, and the wolf snatches them and scatters them. He flees because he is a hired hand and cares nothing for the sheep” (John 10:12, 13 English Standard Version).  Thank You, Lord God, […]

“‘I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep’” John 10:11 English Standard Version). Yes, Lord, Your Son is our perfect shepherd! In Jesus’ name, we love Him. AmenBlessed day to you~

“‘The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I [Jesus] came that they may have life and have it abundantly’” (John 10:10 English Standard Version).  Please, Lord, help us know the difference from the evil spirits and Your Holy Spirit. In Jesus’ holy name, we ask. AmenBlessed day to you~

“‘All who came before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them. I am the door. If anyone enters by me, he will be saved and will go in and out and find pasture’” (John 10:8, 9 English Standard Version). Thank You, Lord, for allowing us salvation from the sins of the world. […]

“This figure of speech Jesus used with them, but they did not understand what he was saying to them. So Jesus again said to them, ‘Truly, truly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep’” (John 10:6, 7 English Standard Version).  Thank You, Father, for making Jesus’ words simplistic. Through His name, we are saved! AmenBlessed […]

“‘But he who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. To him the gatekeeper opens. The sheep hear his voice, and he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out’” (John 10:2, 3 English Standard Version). Our blessed Shepherd is Jesus. Thank You, Lord. In His name, we are grateful. AmenBlessed day […]

“’Truly, truly, I say to you, he who does not enter the sheepfold by the door but climbs in by another way, that man is a thief and a robber’” (John 10:1 ESV). Help us, Father, to examine our hearts. In Jesus’ holy name, we ask. Amen Blessed day to you!

“Some of the Pharisees near him heard these things, and said to him, ‘Are we also blind?’ Jesus said to them, ‘If you were blind, you would have no guilt; but now that you say, ‘We see,’ your guilt remains’” (John 9:40, 41 English Standard Version). If we see, so good. If we are blind? Lord, help us to […]
