A Shepherd Looks at the Good Shepherd and His Sheep

I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it abundantly. I am the good shepherd; the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep. Any shepherd who is a good manager bears in mind one great objective. It is that his flock flourish. The continuous well-being of his sheep is his constant preoccupation. All his time, thought, skill, strength, and resources are directed to that end. Phillip Keller has been a shepherd. He knows that his sheep have literally been the recipients of his life. The strength of his body, the enthusiasm of his spirit, the energy of his mind, the alertness of his emotions, the thrust and drive of his disposition were all directed to the well-being of his flock. This is the graphic picture our Lord had in mind when He stated simply that He had come to give abundant life, and that as the Good Shepherd He was willing to give His life for His sheep. In A Shepherd Looks at the Good Shepherd and His Sheep, Phillip Keller gives us a beautiful picture of the relationship that exists between the Good Shepherd and His sheep. We who are His sheep know how often we stray, but we also know how the Good Shepherd lovingly draws us back to Himself. As you read this book think of yourself as one of Gods sheep. You will once again realize with gratitude how blessed you are because you belong to the Good Shepherd., ISBN13:9780310268000 ISBN10:0310268001 Material Type:hardcover
