Then Jesus told them this parable.. Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Does he not 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!" (Luke 15)
And.. rejoicing we are! Poor Kristin spent several sleepless nights and stressful days searching for her beloved cat, Kobi-chan. What great joy there was when Kobi and Kristin were reunited- I can only imagine how truly amazing the celebrations are that take place in heaven! Thanks, Lord!
