John 10:27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:

If we hear His voice but don’t follow Him, we have to ask ourselves are we really His sheep? Jesus desires that we make Him Lord over our lives. The word “Lord” encompasses every area of our life at all times. When we pick and choose the days and areas we want to follow Christ, we make ourselves lord. When man makes himself lord, his ways lead to death (Proverbs 14:12).

Follow the ways of Christ because He knows what’s best for us.
