今天的福音中,耶穌說:「我的羊聽我的聲音,我也認識他們,他們也跟隨我;我把永生賜給他們,他們永遠不會喪亡」。在芸芸生物當中,耶穌把人類比喻作羊。羊不像貓狗般聰明,也沒有自衛本能,一旦迷路,隨時成為狼的晚餐。

我們傾向自恃聰明,不愛受管束。甚至羊也比我們聰明,牠們一聽到那把來自牧羊人的聲音,便馬上跟隨。

耶穌清楚的說我們該跟隨祂,祂也承諾我們會因而得到永生。

認清善牧耶穌的聲音,只有這聲音才可給我們永生的保證。

In today's gospel, Jesus said: "My sheep hear my voice; I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish." Among all animals, Jesus compares us to sheep. Sheep are not as smart as cats and dogs, they have no way to protect themselves. When they get lost, they will most likely be killed.

We tend to think we are so smart, and we do not like to be told what to do. Even the sheep are smarter than us, for they listen only to the shepherd's voice.

Jesus told us clearly that we ought to follow Him, and He promised us eternal life.

Let us recognize the voice of Jesus the Good Shepherd, that is the only voice that would lead us to eternal life.
