God’s Joy in Seeking the LostLuke 15:4-7 (NIV)"Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Doesn’t he leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the lost sheep until he finds it? And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders and goes home. Then he calls his friends and neighbors together and says, ‘Rejoice with me; I have found my lost sheep.’" 🐑✨Explanation:Jesus reveals God’s heart ❤️ in the parable of the lost sheep. Unlike those who judge or reject, God actively seeks the lost. He leaves the ninety-nine to pursue the one, and when He finds it, He doesn’t scold or shame — He rejoices with great joy 🎉. Heaven celebrates every time a lost person turns back to God 🙌. This shows how valuable each person is to the Lord. 🌟 Application:You may sometimes feel indifferent or even critical of those far from God 🤔. But God’s heart is always to seek and save 💖.
