We are His people and the sheep of His pasture. — Psalm 100:3

 The security of a husband and wife who understand they belong to each other is brilliantly captured in the words of King Solomon's bride, "I am my beloved's, and my beloved is mine" (Song 6:3). This sense of belonging permeates the entire family in a happy marriage. Parents talk lovingly and proudly about their kids. The youngsters spoke lovingly about their parents, siblings, brother, and mother. 

All who recognise God as their Father can experience this sense of kinship. However, a lot of individuals do not acknowledge God as their Creator and Owner. They consider themselves as accidents of nature with no significance or hope, orphans in a senseless universe. 

However, believers can join the psalmist in exulting that "We are His people and the sheep of His pasture" (100:3).
  What provides the only solace in life and death? That I am a faithful servant of my obedient Saviour Jesus Christ, both in life and in death, is the correct response.

We are eternally His! He belongs to us, and we belong to Him. What a fitting commandment: "Make a glad shout to the Lord, all ye lands! Serving the Lord joyfully and singing in His presence is encouraged in Psalm 100:1-2. 

Being a part of God results in countless blessings. We are grateful to God for being our Father, Shepherd, Guardian, Guide, and Stay. We also thank Him for the benefits He bestows upon us every day.
