Can you hear what Jesus want to say to you today? He says, "I know you ... I give you eternal life ... you will never be lost ... no one will ever steal you from Me"... (Jn 10:27-28) ... you will always be in My presence ... I will be your Shepherd ... I will lead you to springs of living water ... I will wipe away all tears from your eyes ... (Rev 7:15, 17) ... I made you ... you belong to Me ... you are My people, the sheep of My flock ..." (Ps 100:3, 5).
How do you feel hearing these words of Jesus? Assuring? Consoling? Comforting? Encouraging? Empowering?
Since Jesus is our Good Shepherd (Jn 10:14), what is expected of us? Jesus says, "The sheep that belong to Me listen to My voice... they follow Me ..." (Jn 10:27).
May we attune our minds to the sound of the Good Shepherd's voice and follow in faith His call in our lives.
Lord, help us know in our hearts that You will always lead us through all the difficulties in this earthly life.
