The Lost Sheep
Luke 15 3-7 3 Then Jesus told them this parable: 4 “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? 5 And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders 6 and goes home. Then he calls his friends and neighbors together and says, ‘Rejoice with me; I have found my lost sheep.’ 7 I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent. This passage really hit home for me recently. I never thought it would, because it was just another parable I learned about in Sunday School when I was growing up. This story may be surprising to some of you, but I feel that it is something many of us have gone through at some point in our lives. College has been such a stressful, crazy, fun, and drastic changing point for me. I am coming up on two years at TWU,
