We're His Sheep

This is based on a sketch at SCS this week.  This cute little Sugar Nellie image brought to mind immediately this verse from the Psalms which says, "Know that the Lord is God.  It is He who made us, and we are the sheep of His pasture."  Psalm 100:3  I hated to shorten the verse for the purposes of fitting on the card since the first two phrases are so powerful.  What a difference it can make to life to "know" for sure that the Lord IS God - He's in control and not only that, He also created us so He know exactly what we need and what's best for us and will ALWAYS do it.  This little girl tenderly feeding the lamb is a good illustration of His care!

Love this card, Bridget! You are so good about printing off your own Bible verses. I've got to remember to do that more often. This sweet card had me humming a tune from Eden's Bridge. "For the Lord is a good Lord, and we are His. We are His people, the sheep of his pasture." (Celtic praise CD). Have a great weekend!

Yes, what a wonderful verse, Bridget! His Word is powerful indeed! When you send this, I imagine you could write inside just what you wrote in your blog comment today. I love it!
