The flock of Jesus

"Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye believed not: the works that I do in my Father's name, they bear witness of me. But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you. My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me." John 10:25-27

     Read the couple of verses associated with this picture. "But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep" I believe this says a lot just in the few words. Are you a part of the Lords flock? Do you know Jesus' voice and do you follow Him? If you are not one of Gods sheep then something in your life needs to change.  Then it says "My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me." If you are apart of His flock and still can't hear the Lords voice then something needs to change. We need to fervently seek Jesus for ourselves, and read His Word. I know for me I started out reading the Word daily then it turned into weekly and the next thing I knew "I didn't have time". But that is no excuse!!  We have 1440 minutes in a day and we can't take 60 of it to spend time with the Lord?! How crazy does that sound, Jesus died for us and we can't spend a portion of our time getting to know Him. Going to church on Sundays is not enough we have to seek Him daily! Jesus is the reason why I am here, and the world is only getting crazier by the second so we should spend more and more time knowing Jesus and following the plan He has for our life. Jesus said that if we seek Him with all of our heart we will find him." And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart."-Jeremiah 29:13

Thank-you Lord for this day you have given me. I want to be a part of your flock and hear from you. Help me to grow in You and fill me up completely. Give me ears to hear, a heart to follow, and eyes to see. Guide me in everything that I do. I want to know you more and more each day, because without you I have nothing. In Jesus name, Amen.
