“The Lost One I Will Search For”

The sheep is bewildered. Somehow, while nibbling grass in the pasture, it got separated from the other sheep. Now, it can see neither the flock nor the shepherd. Darkness approaches. Lost in a valley where predators roam, the sheep is defenseless. Finally, it hears a familiar voice - that of the shepherd, who runs toward the sheep, picks it up, wraps it in the folds of his garment, and carries it home.

God repeatedly likens himself to just such a shepherd. In his Word, he assures us: “I myself will search for my sheep, and I will care for them.” - Ezekiel 34:11, 12.

Are you lost?, do not give up hope, do not be afraid, for God loves you and He will search for you... He will find you if you wish to be found.

“The Sheep That I Care For”

Who are God’s sheep? Simply put, God’s sheep are the people who love and worship Him. The Bible says: “Let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before Jehovah our Maker. For he is our God, and we are the people of his pasture, the sheep in his care.” (Psalm 95:6, 7)
