OUR lesson was about Jesus, the Good Shepherd, and His sheep. I said, “Now children, can you tell me who are Jesus’ lambs?” One little boy said, “us.” That answer pleased me best of all given, like Grace’s “we,” it showed that he included himself among the number of Jesus’ lambs. It is not enough to say, the Lord is a Shepherd. No, by faith you must appropriate Him and say, “The Lord is my Shepherd.” Paul could say “Who loved me and gave Himself for me.” Gal, 2:20 E. G. B.
