John 10:26-28 NASB But you do not believe because you are not of My sheep. My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me; and I give eternal life to them, and they will never perish; and no one will snatch them out of My hand.

My son and I were enjoying the nice weather in the backyard this afternoon. All of the sudden our dog ran to the back door and started whining to be let in, which was odd, because we were outside with her. A few minutes later my husband emerged from the house: he was unexpectedly home almost an hour early! When I told him that she knew he was there before I did, he said, “Of course she did, she has better hearing than you!”

Not only should our hearing be better attuned to Christ than the world, but that hearing should result in following His commands. The Jews that were questioning Jesus in John 10 had heard Him tell many parables about who He was, but they weren’t ready to follow Him.

How is your hearing?
