"The ideal community of believers should be strong, wise, and independent, needing no guidance or protection."
Yet, Jesus paints a different picture, calling Himself the Good Shepherd who lays down His life for His sheep. As He says in the Gospel of John 10:11: "I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep." This verse reminds us that even the strongest flocks need a shepherd's love and sacrifice. Our connection with Jesus isn't about perfect strength; it’s about humbly accepting His guidance and care, just as a flock depends on its shepherd for direction and safety.
