THE SOUNDS OF HOME

The Sound Of Home John 10:27 “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.” To Me There is something special about the sounds of home. Long before we see the house, we often recognize the sounds that belong there. It may be the creak of a familiar porch swing, or the laughter of family gathered in the next room, the birds outside the window singing a familiar tune, or the voice of someone we love calling our name. Those sounds bring comfort because they are familiar. They remind us where we belong. I am the sixth generation to live on the farm my wife and I call home. I am never at a loss for memories and sounds that take me back to my childhood. As believers, there should also be a spiritual sound that becomes just as familiar to us, it’s the voice of our Shepherd.
