Little Flock


Jesus said, "Do not be afraid, little flock, for your Father has been pleased to give you the kingdom." -Luke 12:32


This scene was photographed from our car as we drove home from an outing.  Off in the distance you can see the little flock of sheep up on the hill.  Lilias Trotter, who was a missionary to the Muslims, wrote about today's Bible verse:  "Yesterday 'Fear not little flock' came in the chapter that we were working on and we were getting at the right word for 'little flock.'  'Would that expression'--jelieb I think it was--'mean such a little flock that it would not be worth the Shepherd's care?' asked one.  'No, if it is a very little flock the Shepherd cares for it all the more,' answered Hadj Brahim."

I am grateful that God cares for the least as well as the many.
