We’ve all see the pictures.  Jesus is standing in the middle of a grassy field surrounded by sheep.  In His arms, He is holding a small lamb.  It is a picture of peace and serenity, of tender love and care. But is that all that Jesus wanted us to envision when He utilized this imagery to speak of Himself and His mission?  Today, a real life shepherd shares his experiences and perspectives with us as we also look a little more closely at Jesus’ words and challenge with being our Shepherd.
