I was talking with a friend yesterday and the conversation went something like this...

'Jesus is a good shepherd'

'yeah yeah yeah'

'We are the flock and he leads us'

'yeah yeah yeah'

'Wander off and you may get a poke with his staff or rod to get you back into the flock'.

"Yeah no kidding how many times have I been there!'

"He really is a good shepherd and he has no intention of losing you.'
