“The
Works I Do In My Father’s Name Testify About Me”
Jesus answered, “I did
tell you, but you do not believe. The works I do in my Father’s name testify
about me, but you do not believe because you are not my sheep. My sheep listen
to my voice; I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and
they shall never perish; no one will snatch them out of my hand. My Father, who
has given them to me, is greater than all; no one can snatch them out of my
Father’s hand. I and the Father are one.”
John
10:25-30
Our culture is a cacophony
of sounds and can drown out God’s quiet voice.
Despite the voices around
us, if we quiet our souls and listen, we will hear God’s “still small voice.”
He speaks to us every
day, summoning us in our restlessness and our longing. He calls to us in our
deepest sorrow and in the incompleteness and dissatisfaction of our greatest
joys.
God speaks to us in His
Word. As you pick up His book and read it, you too will hear His voice. He
loves you more than you can ever know, and He wants you to hear what He has to
say.
God
speaks through His Word when we take time to listen.
