  1. Max Lucado _ Safe in the Shepherd's Arms:

    Bugs bug people, but they can kill sheep. Flies, mosquitoes, and gnats can turn the summer into a time of torture for the livestock. Consider nose flies, for example. If they succeed in depositing their eggs into the membrane of the sheep's nose, the eggs become worm-like larvae, which drive the sheep insane. One shepherd explains: "For relief from this agonizing annoyance, sheep will deliberately beat their heads against trees, rocks, posts, or brush…. In extreme cases of intense infestation, a sheep may even kill itself in a frenzied endeavor to gain respite from the aggravation."4

  2. Max Lucado _ Safe in the Shepherd's Arms:

    God is not going to let you see the distant scene either. So you might as well quit looking for it. He promises a lamp unto our feet, not a crystal ball into the future {Psalm 119:105}. We do not need to know what will happen tomorrow. We only need to know he leads us and "we will find grace to help us when we need it" {Hebrews 4:16 NLT}.
