The Lost Sheep
12 "What do you think? If a man has 100 sheep and one of them strays, he leaves the 99 in the hills and goes to look for the one that has strayed, doesn't he? 13 If he finds it, I tell all of you with certainty that he rejoices over it more than over the 99 that haven't strayed. 14 In the same way, it is not the will of your Father in heaven that one of these little ones should be lost."
