Good Shepherd United Methodist Church, Circleville, Ohio, is named for a beautiful stained glass window of the Good Shepherd with his sheep. Its counterpart can be seen in many churches throughout the land. At night the window is lighted so that passers-by may see the picture and be blessed by it.
Beautiful as a stained glass window may be, it takes light to bring out its beauty. The workmanship may be, and often is, superb. But the window is a human creation. Its glory comes not from humans nor of itself alone, but from the light that streams through.
