Sheep following Sheep

The Bible compares we followers of Christ as sheep and Christ as the Shepherd. He is the one to guide us and the one who tells when and what it is time for us to do.
As some of you may know sheep are somewhat odd animals, I have heard before that if a shepherd holds his foot out in front of the first sheep in a file of them, it will jump and so the next and the next...even after the shepherd removes his foot.
In some ways we are the same, God has a way of dealing with each of us and it isn't definitely going to be the same for all of us. We aren't to follow the sheep ahead of us but rather the Shepherd who is willing and devoted to guide us.
