lamb-jess

Good morning…

When I think of a lamb, I think of this sketch. I received a copy of this print after one of our four miscarriages. Instinctively I knew that the soul of the little being inside me had been scooped up and embraced by the loving care of our Lord.

What do you notice about this simple sketch?

Soft, cozy, cotton-like feel. Bonding, complete, tender care. Mutual delight, love given and received. Strong, gentle, nail-scarred hand. Oneness with our Heavenly Father has been paid for by Christ, so each surrendered soul has a safe place to rest, both now and forever.

Like a shepherd he tends his flock; he gathers up the lambs with his arm; he carries them close to his heart; he leads the ewes along (Isaiah 40:11, NET).
