What do you think? If a man owns a hundred sheep, and one of them wanders away, will he not leave the ninety-nine on the hills and go to look for the one that wandered off? And if he finds it, I tell you the truth, he is happier about that one sheep than about the ninety-nine that did not wander off. In the same way your Father in heaven is not willing that any of these little ones should be lost. Matthew 18:12-14Again, this passage pervades my thoughts. I keep thinking how my neighbors are lost sheep and about how much Jesus loves them. I want them to know Jesus' love like I do and beyond. I want him to be real to them. I want to see his love change this borough! I have so much to learn in order to reach out effectively to my neighbors; please teach me Jesus. I need you and feel a brokenness and sensitivity in my heart for my neighbors.
