[Jacob-list] "Still waters"

[ACAMDA at aol.com]

Just learned something neat about my sheep at church!  

The Psalm "The Lord is my Shepherd......He leadeth my beside the still 
waters...." refers to the fact that sheep will not drink from moving water, 
but must have pools of water in order to survive.

Is this true?

We have always had "still" water, but are expanding into an area that has a 
creek.  So I never thought about this before.  Will they use the creek for 
water, or should we plan on having watering troughs?  Also, will they cross 
the creek (get their feet wet), or use the bridge?  Just curious on that one. 
 I have one cow that uses a bridge, and the other won't go near it. (Separate 
pastures - same creek)

It's so wonderful to have someone to ask!  Thanks.
