    The only way we will not be fooled or led astray is to know His voice. He’s our Good Shepherd and He calls to us to come through Him into the fold. He’s the gate and the gate offers us protection, peace, freedom and security from those who would attempt to turn us from following the Shepherd.

    John 10:1-10: 1 “Truly, truly, I say to you, he who does not enter the sheepfold by the door but climbs in by another way, that man is a thief and a robber. 2 But he who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. 3 To him the gatekeeper opens. The sheep hear his voice, and he calls his own ...read more

    Most people get gifts on their birthday but Jesus reversed the role.

    Birthdays. Everybody has them. Some miscount them – me for example. Last year I was telling people I was 77, but Marlene and Keri convinced me that, until December 24, I was only 76.
