Gone Astray- Baa, Baa Black Sheep

‘Baa, Baa Black Sheep’… (Rudyard Kipling Public Domain)

Some children (adults too) tell stories. We come to understand that these stories are fibs and whoppers; downright lies.

What can we believe; WHO can we trust?

Jesus was a storyteller. Trust Him. His stories and messages reveal spiritual truth.

He deserves our undivided attention.

“Truly, truly, I say to you, he who does not enter by the door into the fold of the sheep, but climbs up some other way, he is a thief and a robber. But he who enters by the door is a shepherd of the sheep. To him the doorkeeper opens, and the sheep hear his voice, and he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. When he puts forth all his own, he goes ahead of them, and 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 know the voice of strangers.’ This figure of speech Jesus spoke to them, but they did not understand what those things were which He had been saying to them (John 10:1-6 NASB 1995).”

Many sheep have gone astray.

“When he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing. And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and his neighbors, saying to them, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost (Luke 15:5-6 NASB 1995)!”
