BE PREPARED FOR SURPRISES
In life with Me as your source, be prepared for surprises. It is no secret that My ways are different and defy understanding at times. But, through it all there is one constant. I am faithful to My friends. My sheep know Me and I know them.
Do not be offended by the word sheep. I certainly respect the individuality and creativity of all of My children. Sheep graze freely while their shepherd keeps watch to keep them from harm. Thus it is the same with you. You are free to live your lives as you choose.
I keep watch to help you avoid straying into danger. There are many wolves who seek your destruction. My prayer to My Father is that none of My sheep be lost. However, there will be some who choose danger. Pray for them that they may return to the fold. In the meantime enjoy the freedom of My safety. It is My gift to you.
Lest you forget, we are bound together as one for the greater honor and glory of God. We have become one so that the people in your life know you are My disciple. You have been given a new lease on life to further My work on this earth.
Trust Me when I tell you what to do. I will never lead you astray. What kind of a shepherd would I be if I did that?
