Joh 10:1 "Most positively, I say to you*, the one not entering through the door into the fold of the sheep, _but_ climbing up some other way, that one is a thief and a robber.
Joh 10:2 "But the one entering through the door is shepherd of the sheep.
Joh 10:3 "To this one the doorkeeper opens. And the sheep hear his voice, and his own sheep he calls by name, and he leads them out.
Joh 10:4 "And whenever he brings out his own sheep, he goes before them, and the sheep follow him, because they know his voice.
Joh 10:5 "But a stranger they will by no means follow, _but_ they will flee from him, because they do not know the voice of strangers."

Oh Heavenly Father, I testify again to the Goodness of Our Shepherd.
I thank you for the green pastures and still waters where I will be led today.
I thank you for the paths of Righteousness where I will walk.
May I hear your Voice in your Word today.
Provide for all who call upon you with healing and deliverance and providence and Salvation.
Psa 145:17 The LORD is righteous in all his ways, and holy in all his works.
Psa 145:18 The LORD is nigh unto all them that call upon him, to all that call upon him in truth.
Psa 145:19 He will fulfill the desire of them that fear him: he also will hear their cry, and will save them.
In obedience we ask all these things in the Name of Jesus.

The God of love my Shepherd is,
And He that doth me feed;
While He is mine and I am His,
What can I want or need?
He leads me to the tender grass,
Where I both feed and rest;
Then to the streams that gently pass:
In both I have the best.
Or if I stray, He doth convert,
And bring my mind in frame,
And all this not for my desert,
But for His holy Name.
Yea, in death’s shady black abode
Well may I walk, not fear;
For Thou art with me, and Thy rod
To guard, Thy staff to bear.
Surely Thy sweet and wondrous love
Shall measure all my days;
And as it never shall remove
So neither shall my praise.
--George Herbert, The Temple, 1633
