“Because of your genuine care for me, it’s EASIER to grow and mature indeed.”
This is the testimony of, God’s sheep who have been ”Shepherded’ by His Undersheperds walking in love. Sure there are those who have come through great strain, just as the military Sergeant who reinforced with pain. Yet the precious fruit that could continue to produce, thins out immeasurably when a comforting hand and a kind word was due. Our generations understand and are aware that ”greater attentiveness” is present because of ”Genuine Care.” People will give, people will work, people will highly prize you on earth, if from your heart you show your love, now get prepared to reap, as you adjust your position by loving to the sheep.
1 Peter 5:1-4
1The elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed: 2Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind; 3Neither as being lords over God’s heritage, but being ensamples to the flock. 4And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away
