So this morning we come to talk to ladies. Now men don’t zone out here. This is how you can help her, pray for her, and encourage her. Ladies, I am not a lady obviously, so I am no expert; so I am relying heavily on the Lord this morning (as I should every time!), to share truth from God’s Word and principles from His Word and from the perspective as a man.

This is the kind of happiness God desires for His children, a state of joy and well-being that does not depend on physical or temporary.....

At night the shepherd would count and inspect every sheep to make sure they were there and ok. Shepherds use oil for three purposes, to repel insects or as we just saw snakes, to prevent conflicts, and to heal wounds. Bugs drive sheep crazy, can even kill them. Shepherds pour oil over their heads to keep the insects at bay and keep the flock at peace. Also, the rams would butt each other during mating season, so he would grease them up so they would glance off each other. But even then, sometimes a sheep would get....
I have given them Your word; and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. I do not pray that You should take them out of the world, but that You should keep them from the evil one. They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. Sanctify them by Your truth. Your word is truth. John 17:14-17
