Those verses are wonderful as they talk about the enormous cost to Jesus because of His great love for His sheep - you and me. They remind us of the deep relationship between Jesus and each one of us, which He’s says is the same kind of relationship He has with His own Father in Heaven! That’s huge when you think about it!
A friend reminded me yesterday that we have been made for our Father’s pleasure. What a thought - the God of all things, who made the earth and all the stars - He has chosen us to be His sheep, and we bring Him pleasure. Can you just stop for a minute and let that sink in? I hope it thrills your soul. You bring God pleasure.😊
Isaiah 40:10 He will feed his flock like a shepherd. He will carry the lambs in his arms, holding them close to his heart. He will gently lead the mother sheep with their young.
Jesus is holding us close to His heart. Imagine that, it doesn’t come any better does it? Right this minute you and I are being held in His loving arms and we’re so close to His heart He says we can hear His voice, and as He holds us He’s whispering His love into our hearts today. Just be still, and hear it in your spirit, wherever you are. Give Him your time and hear Him.😊
Thank You Lord Jesus. Thank You for Your sacrifice and love for each one of us so that we can be one of Your sheep, and thank You for holding us so close to your heart. We love You Lord, Amen.
