Jesus said,
"Feed My lambs. Look after My
sheep. Feed My sheep."
John
21:15-17
My sheep are the cause and the
challenge of My life on earth, My
life incarnate, and perpetuated
through My resurrection and ascension
to the Father. My lambs are the
young of all kinds who are growing
into the fullness of life and glory
through My life in them which the
Father purposes for them. Shall
I not, then, love and train them
into eternity? What a joyful challenge
to my leaders among them to ask
that they share in the task of caring
and bringing along in the way.
But each and every one has this
charge too : each must look to the
well-being and happiness of his
friend, brother and acquaintance,
if he is to be a friend of Mine.
I died for all and I died for each
one. None is more precious than
another. My joy is in the self-giving
of each; the truly great are those
who have served their friends and
neighbours and fellow-men most generously.
"Feed My lambs, look after
My sheep, feed My sheep".
