    Ezekiel 34: Thus says the Lord God: From now on, I myself am the shepherd.  As shepherds go after their flocks when they get scattered, I’m going after my sheep.   I’ll rescue them from all the places they’ve been scattered. 

    James:  You can no more show me your works apart from your faith, than I can show you my faith apart from my works.  Faith and works, works and faith—they fit together hand in glove.

    Luke 17: Whenever you did one of these things to the least of my sisters and brothers—that was me.  You did it to me.

    Rosemary's Blessing:

    What good did it do when you frowned?  Let me ask:

    Did it help you at all to accomplish your task?

    Did it lighten your burden or help you along?

    Did the frown that you wore make a right out of wrong?

     

    What good did it do to be grouchy today?

    Did your surliness drive any trouble away?

    Did you cover more ground than you usually do?

    Because of the grouch that you carried with you?

     

    If not, what’s the use of a grouch or a frown?

    If it won’t smooth a path or a grim trouble down?

    If it doesn’t assist you, it isn’t worth while:

    Your work may be hard, but just do it and smile.
