Your Rod

"Your rod . . . they comfort me."
Bread Box: Psalm 23:4b

The Shepherd keeps an eye out on the
sheep and He will throw the rod or the
club ahead of the stray sheep to stay
close with the Shepherd.

That is our comfort that Jesus our
Shepherd keeps an eye out for us to
stay close with Him.

When a wolf comes, the Shepherd will
aim the rod toward a wolf to hurt or
scare off the wolf from attacking the
sheep. That is a comfort to the sheep.

When Satan comes, Jesus, our Shepherd
will aim the rod or the club toward
Satan to hurt him from attacking us.
That is our comfort.

My Bread Box is "the rod" that keeps
me close to Him and His Word.

So trust God today!
