I Am the Good Shepherd Sermon on Christ Declares Love
A devotional piece on Jesus as the Good Shepherd. It compares Christ's care to a mother's lullaby and a shepherd's vigilance, tracing biblical images from David to Bethlehem, and urging readers to hear His voice, seek rest, and find eternal life in Him. It speaks of danger from the devil, the sheep's helplessness, and the shepherd's salvific sacrifice.
