OUR PART AS<br />

HIS SHEEP IS TO<br />

SIMPLY<br />

CONSENT TO BE<br />

LOVED BY HIM,<br />

LET HIM CARRY<br />

US ON HIS<br />

SHOULDERS,<br />

AND REST IN<br />

HIS STRENGTH.<br />

Incidentally, if you look closer at this parable,<br />

our Lord Jesus was actually teaching about<br />

repentance. At the end of the parable, He said, “I say<br />

<strong>to</strong> you that likewise there will be more joy in heaven<br />

over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine<br />

just persons who need no repentance” (Luke 15:7).<br />

But let me ask you this: What exactly did the sheep<br />

do <strong>to</strong> “repent”? Wasn’t it the Shepherd who did<br />

everything?
