Proverbs of a 35 yr old man.

I did it again. I was grazing in the fields as all sheep of the Sheperd do. When I put my face in an ant hill and hurt my nose looking for a sinful treat. The Sheperd told me not to do it but I did it anyway because of my selfishness. Many times before I have done what the Great Sheperd told me not to do. Like not staying away from heavy sinful thickets and dark caves that may have trap holes. Many times I would dig myself free only to ripe my soul apart in the process. Then run away from the Sheperd in shame causing him to come look for me. I am so thankful He always came looking for me. He found me many times shivering, broken, and lost in need of cleansing. He would pick me up, bring me home and restore me. This time I will not run away in the shame of my sins. I will go to my Shepered with my face all bitten up with disobedience, and let him restore my soul. I will accept any discipline just to hear him call me, his little lamb.
