Good Shepherd

John 10:27-28

“My sheep hear my voice; I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish.”

How can you hear the voice of God if you are not listening? If your life does not include some time set aside for silent listening…or simply being present…how can you hear God’s voice speak to you in the depths of your heart? If you listened you would hear words of unconditional love, acceptance and forgiveness. As Jesus said, “My sheep hear my voice…and they follow me.” Why would you follow if you didn’t trust that voice? Following the Good Shepherd would be a joy! Notice that Jesus does not say that when His sheep follow Him that one day He will give them eternal life. He says, “I give them eternal life.” It begins now. If you want to experience a taste of the reign of God, if you want to experience amazing grace now…one way is to follow Jesus. Read His words in scripture. Get to know the one who described Himself as “the way and the truth and the life” (John 14:6).
