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.
My sheep hear my voice, and I know them,
and they follow me, and I give them eternal life;
and they shall never perish , neither shall anyone
snatch them out of my hand -
(John 10 : 4,5,27).
We have a lot of strange voices speaking today from social media
(Facebook, TikTok ,YouTube, Google, Twitter ,What Sapp,
Instagram etc.) house to content creators ,bloggers, from pulpit,
alters, even from people who has frustrated life (mostly people
from bad marriages) still speaks out there frustration in the name of
advice, motivational speakers and experience.
Shepherding means making your children hear your voice, know
your voice, follow, and flee from stranger’s voice. It means giving
them eternal life. It means tending sheep as a shepherd. To make a
group of people move to where you want them to go especially in a
kind, helpful and careful way (Cambridge dictionary).
DEUTRONOMY 6:1 – 9; 11:18 – 21,
”These commandments that I give you today are to be
on your hearts. Impress them on your children.
Talk about them when you sit at home and when you
walk along the road, when you lie down and when you
get up. Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind
them on your foreheads. Write them on the doorframes
of your houses and on your gates.
