English Original
The Bible describes a time when Jesus saw a crowd in the wilderness. He did not see them as rich or poor, old or young, but with compassion, for He saw them as sheep without a shepherd, lost in their sin. Jesus, the Good Shepherd, came to help them—and He knows and loves you too.
John 10:11 tells us: "I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives his life for the sheep." Jesus is that shepherd, and we are His sheep. He willingly took the punishment for our sin, dying in our place.
Even though Jesus showed great love, some people hated Him. They did not believe He was God's Son. They arrested Him and brought Him to trial before Pilate, the Roman governor. Pilate found no fault in Jesus, but the crowd demanded His crucifixion.
Jesus had the power to stop it all, but He chose not to. John 10:17-18 records His words: "I lay down my life that I might take it again. No man takes it from me, but I lay it down of myself." He showed the power of love.
Soldiers crucified Jesus on a cross at Calvary. He endured great pain. People mocked Him, saying, "If you are the Son of God, come down from the cross!" But Jesus stayed on the cross. His shed blood was the payment for our sin. Finally, He cried out, "It is finished!" and gave up His life. The Good Shepherd had given His life for us.
Jesus was buried in a tomb sealed with a large stone. His enemies, fearing His prediction of resurrection, posted guards. But on the third day, an angel rolled the stone away! The tomb was empty. Jesus had risen from the dead! Forty days later, He returned to Heaven and is still our Good Shepherd today.
If you have received Jesus as your Savior, He is your Good Shepherd. He saves you from sin and cares for you daily. One day you will be with Him in Heaven.
Perhaps you have never understood your need for Jesus. Without Him, you are like a lost sheep, forever separated from God. Jesus died to save you from that sin. Romans 10:9 says, "If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved." You can call out to Him right now.
Jesus promises in John 10:27-28: "My sheep hear my voice... I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one will snatch them out of my hand." You are safe forever in the hands of Jesus and God the Father. He will never leave you.
Talk to your Good Shepherd in prayer. Listen to Him by reading the Bible. Obey Him, for He knows what is best. Thank Him for His love and care!

圣经记载，有一次耶稣在旷野看见一群人。他看他们，不是按贫富、老幼来区分，而是满有怜悯，因为他看他们如同没有牧人的羊，迷失在罪中。耶稣，这位好牧人，来帮助他们——他也认识你、爱你。
约翰福音 10:11 告诉我们：“我是好牧人，好牧人为羊舍命。”耶稣就是那位牧人，我们就是他的羊。他甘愿为我们承担罪的刑罚，代替我们而死。
尽管耶稣显明了伟大的爱，仍有人恨他。他们不信他是神的儿子。他们逮捕了他，将他带到罗马总督彼拉多面前受审。彼拉多查不出耶稣有什么罪，但众人却要求把他钉十字架。
耶稣有能力阻止这一切，但他选择了不这样做。约翰福音 10:17-18 记录了他的话：“我将命舍去，好再取回来。没有人夺我的命去，是我自己舍的。”他彰显了爱的能力。
士兵们在各各他山上把耶稣钉在十字架上。他承受了巨大的痛苦。人们讥诮他说：“你如果是神的儿子，就从十字架上下来吧！”但耶稣仍然留在十字架上。他所流的血是为我们的罪付上的代价。最后，他大声说：“成了！”，便舍了生命。好牧人为我们舍了命。
耶稣被安葬在一个用大石头封住的坟墓里。他的敌人因害怕他预言的复活，派了兵丁看守。但第三天，天使滚开了石头！坟墓是空的。耶稣已经从死里复活了！四十天后，他回到了天上，至今仍是我们的好牧人。
如果你已经接受耶稣作你的救主，他就是你的好牧人。他拯救你脱离罪恶，并天天看顾你。有一天，你将要在天上与他同在。
也许你从未明白自己需要耶稣。没有他，你就像一只迷失的羊，永远与神隔绝。耶稣死是为了将你从罪中拯救出来。罗马书 10:9 说：“你若口里认耶稣为主，心里信神叫他从死里复活，就必得救。”你现在就可以呼求他。
耶稣在约翰福音 10:27-28 应许：“我的羊听我的声音……我又赐给他们永生，他们永不灭亡，谁也不能从我手里把他们夺去。”你在耶稣和天父的手中永远安全。他总不撇下你。
通过祷告与你的好牧人说话。通过读圣经来聆听他。顺服他，因为他知道什么对你最好。感谢他的爱与看顾！
