"I am the good Shepherd"
“I know my own and my own know me.
I call them all by name.
I walk before my sheep. I am not like the merchants.
I lay down my life for my sheep.
Attentive Shepherd that I am, I search for the lost sheep, which I tenderly carry on my shoulders after having pressed it to my heart...”
"I am the LIGHT of the world"
In the middle of the night,
in the middle of your darkness,
in the midst of the darkness and the nights
of the world...
a small light,
weak, sometimes almost blown away,
a light which enlightens and warms,
clear and frank,
sometimes like a fire that burns and shines with resplendence,
that sheds light and brightens the way !
"I am the GATE for the sheep"
To reach the Father, one must come through me. A narrow gate...
but which opens up on life.
A gate is to go through, to open, to close, to come in and go out.
I am the gate. It is never completely shut to anyone,
there is always an opening,
there is always a pathway.
