Are You Sorry?

Your perfect golf outing is ruined when you receive a $200 ticket for going 65 mph in a 45 mph zone. What most closely describes your emotions? Disgust at yourself for being careless, getting caught, and wasting money. Abject sorrow for breaking the law, mixed with a desire to never speed again.

Not a Bad Shepherd!

You don’t want to be a sheep under the care of a bad shepherd. A bad shepherd lazes while his sheep starve. A bad shepherd runs away when the hungry wolf attacks the sheep. A bad shepherd sleeps while his sheep wander off and become lost or caught in a thicket. You don’t want to be a sheep under the care of a bad shepherd. Spiritually speaking, a bad shepherd might be a pastor (which means shepherd) who doesn’t care…
