On a Live PD episode, a tweeter asked Officer N. Carmack, “If
a bad man knew the commands you give to Shep [his K-9 dog], would he be
confused?” Officer Carmack said, “No, he only knows my voice.”
This immediately made me think of John 10. In verses 4-5,
Jesus said (of the shepherd), “…the sheep follow him because they know his voice. A stranger they
simply will not follow, but will flee from him because they do not the voice of
strangers.” (NASB)
Then Jesus said (10:27), “My sheep hear My voice, and I know
them and they follow Me.”
This also makes me think of Acts 2 where some heard the
disciples “speaking of the mighty deeds of God” in their own languages and
others said they were drunk.
“My sheep hear My voice.”
Lord, I praise You that Your Voice speaks life and calls Your
own into Your light. May we choose to keep close to You so that we always discern
Your Voice and follow You.
