shepherd

We are to follow Jesus . . . follow all day long. When we follow Him, He leads us beside still waters. When we are beside still waters, we see, reflected in the water, the heavens. The heavens declare the glory of God. Therefore, when we follow, we see the glory of God. Psalms 23  1 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. 2 He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters.3 He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. 4 Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. 5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. 6 Surely  goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever. Revelation 12:2 She was pregnant and was crying out in birth pains and the agony of giving birth 2 Corinthians 11:2  2 For I am jealous for you with the jealousy of God himself. I promised you as a pure bride to one husband—Christ. John 3:29 He who has the bride is the bridegroom; but the friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly because of the bridegroom’s voice. This, my joy, therefore is made full. Ephesians 5:27 that He might present the Church to Himself a glorious bride, without spot or wrinkle or any other defect, but to be holy and unblemished Revelation 19:7 Let us rejoice and triumph and give Him the glory; for the time for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His Bride has made herself ready. Revelation 21:9 One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls, who were loaded with the seven last plagues came, and he spoke with me, saying, “Come here. I will show you the wife, the Lamb’s bride.” Revelation 22:17 The Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” He who hears, let him say, “Come!” He who is thirsty, let him come. He who desires, let him take the water of life freely. 1-15
