THE GOOD SHEPHERD ...
I Assure you, most solemnly I tell you, he who does not enter by the door into the sheepfold, but climbs up some other way (elsewhere, from some other quarter) is a thief and a robber. 2) But he who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. _John 10:1-2 Amp. Bible...
6) Jesus used this parable (illustration) with them, but they did not understand what He was talking about. 7) So Jesus said again, I assure you most solemnly I tell you that I Myself am the Door for the sheep. 8) All others who came [as such] before Me are thieves and robbers, but the [true] sheep did not listen to and obey them. 9) I am the Door; anyone who enters in through Me will be saved (will live). He will come in and he will go out [freely], and will find pasture. 10)The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows).
11)I am the Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd risks and lays down His [own] life for the sheep. _John 10: 6-11 Amp. Bible

LIVING WATER ...
6) And Jacob's well was there,. So Jesus, tired as He was from His journey, sat down [to rest] by the well. It was then about the sixth hour (about noon). 7) Presently, when a woman of Samaria came along to draw water, Jesus said to her, Give Me a drink--- 8) For His disciples had gone off into the town to buy food--- 9) The Samaritan woman said to Him, How is it that You, being a Jew, ask me , a Samaritan [and a ] woman, for a drink?---For the Jews have nothing to do with the Samaritans---10) Jesus answered her, If you had only known and had recognized God's gift and Who this is that is saying to you, Give Me a drink, you would have asked Him [instead] and He would have given you living water. 13) Jesus answered her, All who drink of this water will br thirsty again. 14) But whoever takes a drink of the water that I will give him shall never, no never, be thirsty any more. But the water that I will give him shall become a spring of water welling up (flowing, bubbling) [continually] within him unto (into, for) eternal life. _John 4:6-14 Amp. Bible

The devil, roams around like a lion roaring ...
Therefore humble yourselves [demote, lower yourselves in your own estimation] under the mighty hand of God, that in due time He may exalt you. 7) Casting the whole of your care [all your anxieties, all your worries, all your concerns, once and for all] on Him, for He cares for you affectionately and cares about you' watchfully. 8) Be well balanced (temperate, sober of mind) be vigilant and cautious at all times; for that enemy of yours, the devil, roams around like a lion roaring [ in fierce hunger], seeking someone to seize upon and devour. 9) Withstand him; be firm in faith [against his onset---rooted, established, strong, immovable, and determined], knowing that the same (identical) sufferings are appointed to your brotherhood (the whole body of Christians) throughout the world. _1 Peter 5:6-9 Amp. Bible

When Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea ...
NOW WHEN Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men [astrologers] from the east came to Jerusalem, asking. 2) Where is He Who has been born King of the Jews? For we have seen His star in the east at its rising and have come to worship Him. 3) When Herod the king heard this, he was disturbed and troubled, and the whole of Jerusalem with him. 4) So he called together all the chief priests and learned men (scribes) of the people and anxiously asked them where the Christ was to be born. 5) They replied to him, In Bethlehem of Judea, for so it is written by the prophet:..2:1-5..8) Then he sent them to Bethlehem, saying , Go and search for the Child carefully and diligently, and when you have found Him, bring me word, that I too may come and worship Him. 9) When they had listened to the king, they went their way, and behold, the star which had been seen in the east in its rising went before them until it came and stood over the place where the young Child was. 10) When they saw the star, they were thrilled with ecstatic joy. 11) And on going into the house, they saw the Child with Mary His mother, and they fell down and worshiped Him. Then opening their treasure bags, they presented to Him gifts---gold and frankincense and myrrh..13) Now after they had gone, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream and said, Get up! [ Tenderly] take unto you the young Child and His mother and flee to Egypt; and remain there till I tell you [otherwise], for Herod intends to search for the Child in order to destroy Him. 14) And having risen, he took the Child and His mother by night and withdrew to Egypt..19) But when Herod died, behold an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt. 20) And said, Rise, [tenderly] take unto you the Child and His mother and go to the land of Israel, for those who sought the Child's life are dead.21) Then he awoke and arose and [ tenderly] took the Child and His mother and came into the land of Israel. _Matthew 2:1-21 Amp. Bible

for God is Love ...
1 John 4:8) He who does not love has not become acquainted with GOD [does not and never did know Him], for God is love... ..11) Beloved, if God loved us so [very much] we also ought to love one another. _1 John 4:11...
19) We love Him, because He first loved us. 20)If anyone says, I love God, and hates (detests, abominates) his brother [ in Christ], he is a liar; for he who does not love, whom he has seen, cannot love God. Whom he has not seen, 21) And this command (charge, order, injunction) we have from Him; that he who loves God shall love his brother [ believer] also. _1 John 4:19-21 Amp. Bible

Noah's Ark ...
AND THE Lord said to Noah. Come with all your household into the ark, for I have seen you to be righteous (upright and in right standing) before Me in this generation. _Genesis 7-1 Amp. Bible

Away in a Manger ...
Away in a manger, no crib for a bed, The little Lord Jesus laid down His sweet head. The stars in the sky looked down where He lay, The little Lord Jesus, asleep on the hay. The cattle are lowing, the Baby awakes, But the little Lord Jesus no crying He makes; I love Thee, Lord Jesus, look down from the sky, And stay by my cradle till morning is nigh. Be near me, Lord Jesus, I ask Thee to stay, Close by me forever, and love me, I pray; Bless all the dear children in Thy tender care, And fit us for Heaven to live with Thee there. _James R. Murray (1841-1905)

Footprints in the Sand ...
One night a man had a dream. He dreamed he was walking along the beach with the Lord. Across the sky flashed scenes from his life. For each scene, he noticed two sets of footprints in the sand.; one belonging to him, and the other to the Lord. When the last scene of his life flashed before him, he looked back at the footprints in the sand. He noticed that many times along the path of his life there was only one set of footprints, He also noticed that it happened at the very lowest and saddest times in his life. This really bothered him and he questioned the Lord about it. "Lord , You said that once I decided to follow you, You'd walk with me all the way. But I have noticed that during the most troublesome times in my life, there is only one set of footprints. I don't understand why when I needed you most you would leave me." The Lord replied, "My son, My precious child, I love you and I would never leave you. During your times of trial and suffering, when you see only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you."...Author Unknowm

You must be born again !
NOW THERE was a certain man among the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler (a leader, an authority) among the Jews. 2) Who came to Jesus at night and said to Him, Rabbi, we know and are certain that You have come from God [as] a Teacher; for no one can do these signs (these wonderworks, these miracles---and produce the proofs) that You do unless God is with him. 3) Jesus answered him, I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, that unless a person is born again (anew, from above), he cannot ever see (know, be acquainted with, and experience ) the kingdom of God. 4) Nicodemus said to Him. How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter his mother's womb again and be born? 5) Jesus answered. I assure you, most solemnly I tell you , unless a man is born of water and [ even] the Spirit, he cannot [ever] enter the kingdom of God. 6) What is born of [from] the flesh is flesh [of the physical is physical]; and what is born of the Spirit is spirit. _ John:3:1-6 Amp. Bible
