We see Jesus!

The criminal. The CSB calls him a notorious prisoner. Now the chief … Continue reading Give Us Barabbas!

The Shepherd!

HE Shepherds us, we need HIM! As I was taking pictures of the sheep the other day I thought of my good shepherd, God. There with the sheep were two livestock guardian dogs (LGD). They were very friendly but I'd almost bet that if I went inside the fence to mess with the sheep it … Continue reading The Shepherd!
