Today's Gospel contains a fragment of Jesus' teaching about the Good Shepherd (John 10: 27-39). The sheep that obeyed His voice are seen in Heaven. They stand before the throne of God and before the Lamb (Rev. 7: 9). How did they get there? By believing the testimony of the apostles (Acts 13:48) and by persevering in their faith (Rev. 7:14).  (Reflection for the Good Shepherd Sunday).
