I see the Good Shepherd motioning for His sheep to follow Him. He is smiling, for He has seen the end from the beginning. His sheep know His Voice and they will not follow another. He is leading you where you have never gone before. He is leading you to a higher place. He is leading you on His path. There is danger lurking on the side roads and detours. But NO HARM shall come to you who are with your Shepherd. His rod and staff shall comfort you. For with these He keeps the devouring lions away. You belong to Him and He shall keep your feet from stumbling. Rest secure in Jesus, for He carries you on His strong shoulders and shields you all the day long. The Good Shepherd loves His sheep and has laid down His life for them. So keep looking to Jesus, beloved. Keep your eyes upon His Glorious Face. He is saying," Follow me, Beloved. I am your fierce Protector. Be not afraid for I have gone ahead of you. I make a way where there seems to be no way. I have much to show you. Rise up, My love, My beautiful one and come away with Me." .......................................................................................................................................

John 10:3 He calls His own sheep by name and leads them out. 4When He has brought out all His own, He goes on ahead of them, and His sheep follow Him because they know His voice. 5 But they will never follow a stranger; in fact, they will run away from him because they do not recognize a stranger’s voice.
