Gracie

I wanted to introduce to my little sheep, Gracie.  I saw her on Etsy and thought she would make a wonderful little knitting and crochet buddy.  She sits near me when I knit and crochet and she makes me smile.  She even likes to sit in the yarn, as you will see in the pictures below.  She is 100% felted wool, handmade, from Latvia.  She got here via post sometime last week and I am loving have her sit next to me.  Here are some pictures of her.


Gracie is a reminder to me that I am part of the flock of the Messiah and that He cares for me like a shepherd.  If you are a believer in Yeshua, you are also His little sheep too!  Every sheep is a little different.  Some are young, some are old.  Some of us are a little chubbier than others (and it's not because of the extra wool but because of too many donuts!) and some of us make weird little "baa's" while others have more refined and elegant ones.  That's what makes the Messiah's flock so interesting.  We're all so different!


Isaiah 40:11 (NASB)


Like a shepherd He will tend His flock,
In His arm He will gather the lambs
And carry them in His bosom;
He will gently lead the nursing ewes.
