Next (I have been told) is misjudgement

So in this one goat will observe and address the situation to see what to do to get out of it, more then a sheep will.. I was reading up on the whole thing and what pops into my head is how a farmer had written how his goats would often climb up a number of different buildings, to get up on to it and sunbath on the barn roof.
In other words goats are tricky to look after as they will explore new territory, yet also they observe and are good at getting them self's out of a mess they get them self into.

Now as I started with the overeating sheep following goats..this is where the big difference comes as a sheep may find way out of mess, through panic alone, its head goes out of the window and fear sets in...
They don't trust that the owner will have thought of this, and built the land to contain the sheep.
Yet feel they have no hope and basically wait to die because of fear.

Put a goat in this situation and it will survive, it will make a mile stone (told to say) that it uses as a back track, watch it on a mountain how it will resort back to its original point to find a way off. (I am not sure if that is right, yet was told to write that and shown how it works also as writing it; I do love God; God is so cool when then happens, it's like a movie.)
(Also this is maybe why I referred to my self as a kid to begin)

Next is the benefit of Disobedience

So yes many might think that the sheep are the best as they do what is told, yet they still haven't learned to be a sheep dog (as in the film also) as then you assist the farmer or shepherd.

Goats will though...
Though they are disobedient always, when kept with sheep, it causes the sheep to see this, sheep then will either follow the goat, as it is greedy as mentioned.
Else it will see the trouble the goat gets into on its own path and decides to stay and eat in the field and stay out of trouble, instead.

Yet in saying that I also remembered many farmers and shepherds comments of that, it is far easier to keep goats then sheep.
As you can leave goats and as long as they are secure, they will learn and take care of them self's.

Sheep on the other hand take constant care and nurturing else they die very quickly with things like:
Having to much wool,
Having to much food,
Having to much freedom,
Having babies and needing constant extra care off the farmer. The farmer often needs to do the sheep's job for it, on many occasions, whilst it's babies are young.
Calling to age, a sheep must be sheared to remain healthy (told to add)
(I may add to that list later when instructed....)
