Sheep are not particularly bright animals. Sheep follow the crowd and don’t think of the consequences. It is not that they occasionally wander off, it is their pattern. It is predictable and expected. They are easily distracted and easily led astray.

There is nothing in this world can offer us that is as good as what God provides for us.  This is why God is constantly calling us back to himself when it is the natural tendency of our flesh to drift away from him.  God is faithful!  Even though we may fail, God never fails us!  God is full of compassion!
