Shine your light

"Arise, shine; For your light has come! And the glory of the Lord is risen upon you."

Isaiah 60:1

"You are the light of the world.

A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. 

Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, 

but on a lampstand, 

and it gives light to all who are in the house. 

Let your light so shine before men, 

that they may see your good works 

and glorify your Father in heaven"

Matthew 5:14-16

let your light shine today. 

{Bible Journaling} Jesus - The Good Shepherd

The Good Shepherd

This is how sheep respond to a good shepherd...

"The sheep hears his voice, and he calls his own by name and leads them out.

when he has brought out all of his own, he goes before them, and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice.

A stranger they will not follow, but they will flee from him, for they do not know the voice of strangers." 

John 10:3-5

The good Shepherd lays down his life for his sheep

The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.

My sheep hear my voice and I know them , and they follow me. John 10:27 

My prayer is that I may always hear His voice and follow Him where He leads me. That I will trust in the Lord with all my heart and not lean on my own understanding. Thank you Jesus for leading me and making my paths straight. Help me to not follow only Your voice and flee from all evil. Amen
