Wolves

I am sending you out like sheep among wolves. Therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves.  Matthew 10:16

 

No wound? No scar?
Yet as the Master shall the servant be,
And pierced are the feet that follow Me;
But thine are whole. Can he have followed far
Who has no wound nor scar?

“Hast thou no scar?” Amy Carmichael

The other gods were strong, but Thou wast weak;
They rode, but Thou didst stumble to a throne;
But to our wounds only God’s wounds can speak,
And not a god has wounds, but Thou alone.
“Jesus of the Scars” Edward Shillitoe


I know that after my departing grievous wolves shall enter in among you, not sparing the flock.  Acts 20:29

Oh Lord keep me from bein'
The one the wolves pull down

“Wolves” by Garth Brooks
