Good Friday morning. The call of God can always be heard. The practice of whistling is found in the Bible. God is described as a shepherd whistling for His sheep. This image could be what Zechariah had in mind when he described how God will one day whistle to bring a wandering and scattered people back to Himself.
Many years later Jesus said, "Many sheep hear My voice, and I know them and they follow Me." That may be the whistle of a shepherd. Sheep don't understand words, but they know the sound that signals the shepherd's presence.
Misleading voices and distracting noises still compete for our attention. Yet God has ways of signaling us, even without words. By events that can be alarming or encouraging. He reminds us of His guiding, protecting, and reassuring presence. ( I will whistle for them and gather them, for I will redeem them. Zechariah 10:8 ). Have a great day. TGIF!
