                     Allow Me to Be Your Shepherd


Come as a lamb unto Me, for I love My sheep.  Come, willing to trust Me, 
allowing Me to be your Shepherd.  I know the way, and will lead you.  I 
will lead you to safe places and will keep you away from the places of 
danger.  Follow Me!  I will keep you away from the things that would 
harm you, and I will protect you.  For My love for you is great, and I 
will stand guard over you.  I will guard you in the nights.  I will guard 
your heart from the enemy, the prowler.  Follow Me, in obedience.  Know 
My voice and I will share things with you, sit with you, and spend time 
with you, as you come unto Me.  I will share the treasures of heaven,  
but you must be willing to follow.  Come.  Follow Me.
