ELI,THE SHEPHERD

I have this precious little sheep, that the Dayspring folks have created, who now sits on my new bookshelf! "Eli" is dressed as a shepherd and is holding a baby lamb, in his arms.......
he is special to me, in several ways.......
One, just because I'm a sentimentalist, and I think he's cute, with his sandals, and robe.......
Well, you all get the idea.......(Hopelessly sentimental!)
As I watch him holding this little lamb,I'm reminded of how many sheep, our Heavenly Father holds onto, and lifts up, into His protective arms........
How comforting and safe, to be held in His arms.
I guess, though, that this Mother, like so many others, see this wonderful, caring Shepherd, holding her own son in His arms, and just waiting.......
Waiting for the day, when she can go hold him for herself!
What a Mighty God we serve.....
(He's a cute little sheep though!)
