This is an absolutely beautiful post. I've never seen the Psalm broken out this way, it makes it even more meaningful and powerful. The depth and riches of God's Word!! It reminds me of one of my favorite passages, John 10:14 "I am the Good Shepard; I know my sheep, and my sheep know me." Why does He know them? Because as the shepards of old did, the Lord addresses each one by name and gives the compassion and encouragement needed by every idividual to carry him through.
What lovely thoughts about the sheep knowing who the Shepherd is. I thank you for sharing them with me. I look forward to our visit later. I hope you have a great day. We've got to keep at it with the school books. Jonah tested out of 2nd grade very well, but is a little behind in subtraction, so we're minus'ing the summer away.
