Isaiah 40:11

“He tends his flock like a shepherd:  He gathers the lambs in his arms
and carries them close to his heart; He gently leads those that have young.”

We are God’s children.  He invites us into the loving relationship between He, His Son, and His Spirit.  He gathers us and holds us close to His heart, the very same heart that loves His Son and Spirit. He feels compassion toward us and nurtures us, like a good Shepherd to His sheep.  He sees our hearts and knows we need His heart.  He cares for us as His children, who need His love, long for His arms, and crave His compassion.  Let us release our hearts to His care.
