Jesus said,
I am the Good Shepherd : the Good
Shepherd is one who lays down his
life for the sheep. And there are
other sheep I have that are not of
this fold and these I have to lead
as well. They too will listen to My
voice and there will be only one flock
and one shepherd"
John 10:11
As I gave My life for my beloved
ones on earth that they might have
eternal life so do I look to each
and every one of them to give themselves
in loving self-giving for the ingathering
of the Father's Kingdom on earth.
In loving obedience to the Father's
ongoing embracing will in this is
the fulfilment and progress of each.
Many there are who respond to My
voice from afar, not seeing My face.
Some are deterred from following
Me by the alien, sometimes hostile
disposition of those who call Me
their Shepherd . Such grieve the
heart of the Father and endanger
their own living participation in
the Kingdom of love
The light of Our Presence, the
life of Our Being and the joy of
our Kingdom is for all who desire
it; and it is the Father's will
and loving purpose for every one
of his beloved children that each
should attain it in the power of
My saving love and in their willing
assent, however feeble the pulse
of their desire.
