Ever lost something that was truly important? I mean, REALLY important? There have been a few occasions where we have emptied drawers, purses, hampers, cabinets, trying to find something that we knew we had just a few hours before. Thankfully, we usually find whatever it is that we are looking for but, not until we have diligently looked.
I remember not too long ago that a search for a missing set of keys took us several uneasy, unsettling, and nervous minutes. We looked everywhere. We looked everywhere again. Then, we found them. In a place that we thought had been searched previously. While you are frustrated with having to look, there is absolutely nothing that describes the feeling of finding something that has been lost.
Today's word is Matthew 18:12, NLT, which reads, "If a man has a hundred sheep and one of them wanders away, what will he do? Won't he leave the ninety-nine others on the hills and go out to search for the one that is lost?"
We have a SAVIOR that is always searching for lost souls. He wants to find us/them all. Millions have accepted Him as SAVIOR and LORD, and He loves each and every one of us more than we could ever imagine - He died for us. Yet, He will still allow us to enjoy the goodness of salvation while He searches for others. Aren't you glad? Aren't you grateful that He found you? I know I am!
Be Blessed,
