Kay Arthur has a book "Wandering Woolly : A Lamb's Life in the 23rd Psalm" that deals with this question - its only 40 pages long. I think the idea is that sheep are pretty stupid animals and depend on the shepherd for food, protection, water, shelter, etc. In that manner, we are dependent on Jesus for everything. | ||||||

This writer thinks it belittles God's people and dishonors the Lord to say that we are like stupid sheep and that's why we need a shepherd. The simple fact is the Lord is God. It is he who has made us, and not we ourselves. We should be thankful that he has taken the role of Shepherd, to provide for us and to protect us, because we need it. There are thieves who come by only to steal from us, to kill, and to destroy. The Lord is our Shepherd. He gives his life for the sheep. So he is our Savior. But he is also our Maker, and he is Lord. Let us submit to him, and let us fear and honor him. |
