DEVOTION:  John 10:11-18 English Standard Version (ESV)

¹¹ I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. ¹² He who is a hired hand and not a shepherd, who does not own the sheep, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and flees, and the wolf snatches them and scatters them. ¹³ He flees because he is a hired hand and cares nothing for the sheep. ¹⁴ I am the good shepherd. I know my own and my own know me, ¹⁵ just as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep.¹⁶ And I have other sheep that are not of this fold. I must bring them also, and they will listen to my voice. So there will be one flock, one shepherd. ¹⁷ For this reason the Father loves me, because I lay down my life that I may take it up again. ¹⁸ No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take it up again. This charge I have received from my Father."

YESTERDAY'S QUIZ     What did David order be done that caused a three day plague of death to sweep across Israel?

 

From Pat King:  I've been taking care of my sick dog. But since Don can't answer, here goes: Basically, he conducted a census. Which would have been okay, if they had just followed God's rules regarding censuses. But, of course, they didn't. Here's 2 articles about it:
