Go after the one which is lost.

Luke 15:1-5, Now all the tax-gatherers and the sinners were coming near Him to listen to Him. And both the Pharisees and the scribes began to grumble, saying, "This man receives sinners and eats with them." And He told them this parable, saying, "What man among you, if he has a hundred sheep and has lost one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the open pasture, and go after the one which is lost, until he finds it? And when he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing."

We know that Jesus came to seek and save the lost, and that was what irritated the self-righteous of His day. There’s a subtle trap in our own walk with Him, for there may well be those who don't share our beliefs that we don't associate with any longer. While that may be appropriate in many cases, there may also be those that only we can reach. Where does He want us to reach out, who does He want to touch with His love today?

Guide us by the power of Your Holy Spirit to reach those that we can touch with Your love and compassion.
