Mary had a little lamb its fleece was white as snow;
And everywhere that Mary went, the lamb was sure to go.
It followed her to school one day, which was against the rule;
It made the children laugh and play, to see a lamb at school.
And so the teacher turned it out, but still it lingered near,
And waited patiently about till Mary did appear.
"Why does the lamb love Mary so?" the eager children cry;
"Why, Mary loves the lamb, you know" the teacher did reply.
And everywhere that Mary went, the lamb was sure to go.
It followed her to school one day, which was against the rule;
It made the children laugh and play, to see a lamb at school.
And so the teacher turned it out, but still it lingered near,
And waited patiently about till Mary did appear.
"Why does the lamb love Mary so?" the eager children cry;
"Why, Mary loves the lamb, you know" the teacher did reply.
Deuteronomy 31:6
New International Version (NIV)Be strong and courageous.Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.”
Exodus 13 & 14
Israelites being led by God
Mary's little lamb has an almost crazy connection to Christ always being with us. The lamb is always with her, but goes to school - against the rules - and politely waits for her to return to be with her again. When exiting Egypt the Israelites had some of the most amazing experiences with God. To be able to follow Him as a cloud, or by fire would be amazing. They did not move unless God moved - and even when it seemed that God was not with them, He was their rear guard protecting them from their enemies. God is like this for us as well, and that is something to be grateful for!
