They’ll know we are Christians by our hashtags? The heart of the Father is, and has always been, the heart of a shepherd. When Jesus tells us that He is the Good Shepherd and not merely a hired hand, he sets a crucial example for His people to follow until His return. (John 10:6-18, Gen 4:8-9, Ezekiel 34:1-10, James 2:14-16, Luke 5:12-13, John 13:35)
