Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the path of sinners, nor sits in the seat of the scornful; But his delight is in the law of the Lord, and on His law he meditates day and night. He shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water that brings forth its fruit in due season, whose leaf also does not wither; and whatever he does shall prosper. **Psalm 1:1-3**
Being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ. **Philippians 1:6**
But he who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. To him, the doorkeeper opens and the sheep hear his voice; and he calls his own sheep by name and he leads them out. And when he brings out His own sheep, he goes before them, and the sheep follow him for they know his voice... I am the door of the sheep... I am the door. If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and will find pasture... I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down His life for the sheep... I am the good shepherd and I know my sheep, and am known by my own. As the Father knows Me, even I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep... Therefore My Father loves Me because I lay down My life that I may take it again. No one takes it from Me, but I lay it down for Myself. I have power to lay it down and I have power to take it again. This command have I received from My Father... My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me. And I give them eternal life and they shall never perish; niether shall anyone snatch them out of My hand. My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father's hands. I and My Father are one. **John 10 excerpted**
