“I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep.” – John 10:11
The Good Shepherd GAVE His life so we could HAVE life!
One of the greatest things that Jesus Christ did for us while here on Earth was revealing to us WHO HE WAS and WHAT HE DOES. In our verse to DATE, John 10:11 reveals to us that He is the GOOD SHEPHERD. A shepherd has the huge responsibility of leading, providing, protecting, and caring for the sheep. To be a shepherd means putting the sheep first and doing whatever is necessary to keep them alive! So as Jesus reveals that He is the Good Shepherd He says that He GIVES HIS LIFE for the sheep.
As you ponder this revelation of WHO JESUS CHRIST IS and WHAT HE DOES (DID) I hope you can proclaim WHAT A SAVIOR!!! He GAVE His life so you could HAVE life.
As I read John 10:11 I cannot help but go back to John 3:16. “For God so loved the world that He GAVE His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but HAVE everlasting life.”
He GAVE His life so you could HAVE life, here and HEREAFTER!.
Continue Strong with gratitude and worship, crying out WHAT A GOOD SHEPHERD!
