The good shepherd is Jesus. He is the only one who truly cares for the flock that He purchased with His own blood shed on the Cross of Calvary. Jesus always searches for any lost lambs that are going astray. He is the One who is able to bring them back to His fold of righteousness. Jesus created you and knows all about you. All those who have given their lives to the Lord are His children. These are the sheep that God the Father knew were His own sheep since the foundation of the world. They are the ones that the Father has given into the hands of the Lord for eternal safe keeping. All these people are the sheep of the good shepherd.
