The Shepherd & Sheeps Accountability (Hebrews 13:17)
God's mandate of responsibility and accountability to shepherd His people involves a principle that bears on and has implications for every relationship in life. The under-shepherd and the sheep of God's church should equally and deeply consider their roles and leader and lead, all of which come under the Headship of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

The Good Shepherd and The Bad Shepherds
Entering into John chapter 10 we find Jesus taking the Pharisees further in the discussion that ended in John 9 where He accused them of spiritual blindness. Here He calls them thieves and robbers and hirelings who do not care for the flock of God. It is a good discussion about what godly leaders are like and how they care for the flock. We can benefit from this wisdom and examine our own place in God's Sheepfold.

The 23rd Psalm Part 5
The 23rd Psalm if about life—not the popular notion of death and tragedy. It has been referred to as the ‘John 3:16’ of the Old Testament that promises life in abundance. The three objects in verse 5 represent three subheadings that summarize the theme of this study: table – God sustains me oil – He chose me for a purpose cup – I have more than I ever will need This imagery also foreshadows the emblems of communion that point to Christ’s sacrifice when he took on the form of man and became our servant. If our Shepherd sustains us, it is because he has a purpose for us, and will bless us abundantly!

The 23rd Psalm Part 4
We all experience gloom in our lives, especially with today's economic challenges. This describes the "shadow of death" that King David experienced when he wrote The 23rd Psalm. The drama in his life and the actual threats on his life by his very own flesh and blood drove him to his only refuge—the comfort of The Lord, his shepherd. How do you see yourself 'finishing' amidst the dangers and threats on the path you are on? Be willing to be led, give up control of your life, and God will guide you safely through!
