Sunday, May 7th
Acts 4:8-12, 1 John 3:1-2, John 10:11-18

The sheep are Mine, the lambs are mine ; so are the cattle on a thousand hills. I was with the Father in creation, breathing life and light and joy in all that is. And the sons of men the Father gave me to save and - through Our Holy Spirit - sanctify ad offer them eternal life through My self-giving.

To each child of man I minister, as I am given leave, and enter heart and mind as I am welcomed and accommodated at the soul's centre. I teach and train and tend, challenge to service and enable through the grace and power of Our indwelling. I seek to join one faithful follower with another and all together in a fellowship of joy in Us.

In life, in death, I bring our sheep and lambs to the Father to rejoice with the redeemed and sanctified creation and the whole company of Heaven.
