Ezekiel 34:12 “As a shepherd looks after his scattered flock when he is with them, so will I look after my sheep. I will rescue them from all the places where they were scattered on the day of clouds and darkness”
Not too long ago, my son had come home from school and was worn out. His little body was not used to going to school all day without a nap. I remember him coming home and lying on the couch wanting to go to sleep.
As my daughters did them homework and we resumed our normal activity we noticed it was real quite in the house. I called to my wife and asked her if she had seen him, and she hadn’t. We called his name and no answer, we panic, thinking he might have gone outside without us knowing.
We ran outside desperately looking for him. Fear began to set in when we could find him. Then my wife said, here he is. My son was found in his bed under the covers sound asleep. He was Oblivious to us calling and diligently seeking for him.
For a brief moment I thought I had lost a child, but then I was quickened that God has many lost children. The way we look for our children when their lost is the same way God looks for His. Listen my friend you and I have an opportunity to be involved in helping bring God’s lost children home.
Knowing God’s great love for the lost should motivate every believer to reach out to the lost with the love of Christ.
Prayer Suggestion: Lord, help me reach one more of your lost children.
