Do you hear?

Today’s Inspiration 😇

Do you know God’s voice? 

In childcare, parents pick their toddlers up at the end of the day. When the toddlers hear their parent, they immediately drop everything and run full force to find them. They often begin to cry when they think they cannot reach their parent quickly or if they believe their parent might leave again without them. 

Do we drop everything in haste when we hear our Father calling? Do we dread the thought of God leaving without us?

John 10:3-5 (NKJV)

To him the doorkeeper opens, and the sheep hear his voice; and he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. And when he brings out his own sheep, he goes before them; and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice. Yet they will by no means follow a stranger, but will flee from him, for they do not know the voice of strangers.”

The above passage suggests there were some sheep that did not belong to the Father. 

Just like in childcare there are children that belong to different parents. 

But the parent only calls their child. 

Notice Jesus didn’t drag them out. He didn’t beat them out. He called and they came. 

God only called His own by name. 

We have to follow Jesus as if our life depends on it. We cannot afford to take our eyes off Christ or we will become lost. 

Do you belong to God? 

Will you know His voice when He calls?

You have a specific destination. 

You have a God ordained purpose. 

Don’t become distracted. 

Fight to keep your position. 

Fight to follow the Father. 

Be blessed and know that Jesus loves 💕you!
