    David reflected God’s own heart as He faithfully tended his sheep, as well as when he later was the shepherd king over Judah and Israel. We need a shepherd’s heart to help us care for the people God brings into our lives.

He actually lived out in the fields or hills with the sheep. My understanding is that they did not do this year round ...read more
