John 10:11-18
This is one of the most beautiful metaphors used to understand and know Jesus. It is a relatable “I Am” proclamation for the people. There are good shepherds and bad shepherds. The latter save themselves when the sheep are threatened by a predator. The good shepherd will do anything to save the sheep up to and including laying down his own life.
You made me, O God, and I belong to you. You laid down your life for me. I know your voice, Kind Shepherd and love hearing you call me, especially when I have strayed.
