…the sheep listen to his (the Shepherd’s) voice and heed it; and he calls his own sheep by name and brings (leads) them out.  John 10:3, AMPC

_________________________

I once saw a film clip about a shepherd of today. It showed an imposter calling for the sheep to come his way.

But the sheep went on grazing, just as if they couldn’t hear. Then their true shepherd called. His voice, to them, was clear.

It was amazing to watch them immediately flock to his side. Likewise, we flock to our true Shepherd, protector, and guide.

At times, a voice that is dangerous will come to us in disguise. But the voice of our Shepherd, Jesus, and His truths make us wise.

P. A. Oltrogge
