Summary:

Do you think that anyone can have a shepherds heart?

A true shepherd does not have a position, yet has given all for the sheep.

Show Notes:

• One cannot shepherd God’s sheep without having His heart

• There is a balance that is not so easy to see without that heart

• A good shepherd will lay down his life for his sheep

Take Away:

There are few who come to know how to balance everything needed in

a sheep fold, the milk for the babes, the meat for the mature, how fast

to lead them so that no one lags behind, and no one is jumping way out

front. God bless those with a true shepherds heart.
