The Lost Sheep
Jesus told a parable about a shepherd who had one hundred sheep. When one sheep went missing, the shepherd left the ninety-nine and searched until he found the lost one.
When he found it, he joyfully carried it home and celebrated with friends. Jesus explained that God cares deeply for every person and rejoices when someone who is lost returns to Him.
