The shepherd-dog has been sent after the flock of sheep and goats, and now he is bringing them home. They run in front of him because they are afraid of him, nevertheless he will bring them to their shepherd, and the place of pasture the shepherd has for them.
How different this is from the wav the Lord Jesus does with His sheep. He goes before them, as He knows the way and He leads them. If we are His sheep, and we follow Him, we shall be led in paths of righteousness, and we shall have a happy path, and shall be to God’s glory, pleasing Him in all our ways. We shall also be able to say,
“The Lord is my Shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures. He leadeth me beside the still waters.” Psalms 23:1,21<<A Psalm of David.>> The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. 2He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. (Psalm 23:1‑2).
That would be a good and happy place for the sheep, and it is such a place the Lord ever leads His own, if they are willing to follow Him.
On the other hand, there are those who do not love the voice of the Lord Jesus, they do not know Him, and they like to follow in the paths of sin, and thus they reap bad results.
Dear children, do not rest till you know the Lord Jesus as your Saviour and Shepherd, and then seek to follow Him closely, and you will not only please Him, but your path will be one of happiness.
“My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.” John 10:2727My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: (John 10:27).
