“I Have Found My Sheep

 That Was Lost”

 

 

“Which one of you, having a hundred sheep and losing one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness and go after the one that is lost until he finds it? When he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders and rejoices. And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and neighbors, saying to them, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep that was lost.’ Just so, I tell you, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance.”

 

Luke 15:4-7

 

Have you accepted Jesus? What are you waiting for? Do you have any idea of whether you will live one more second, a year or a decade? No, you have no idea. Life is short and fleeting. Live life and be prepared to live life eternally.

 

All heaven rejoices

 over one sinner

 who repents.
