         My dear faithful shepherds of My precious young children, thank you for your love for them. Thank you for your dedication. Thank you for laying down your lives. Although you may not see the reward of your labors now and you may not receive much gratification or gratitude, as you continue to pour into them and love them and be desperate about each one, your labors will be rewarded. For although many do not see the time and effort you invest, I see, and I will reward you.
         At times you feel incapable and unworthy; nevertheless, I have chosen you, and I ordain you and give you the anointing to fulfill My will. I like it when you are incapable, because you look to Me and are desperate with Me about the needs of each child. For each one is unique and requires special prayer and special attention, an individual unconditional love. Thank you for supplying this need in their lives, for they see and feel My love through you.
         When you get impatient with them and when you think they are not progressing as rapidly as you would like, know that they are in My hands. They are My children, and I care for My Own. You do what you can, and I will do what you can't in making their hearts moldable, flexible and malleable.
         Thank you, My dear shepherds, My precious pastors, My loving samples. Thank you for making their lives fulfilling, exciting and challenging. I love you!
