Sunday, October 6: Doesn’t she light a lamp, sweep the house

Read Luke 15:8-10

"Or suppose a woman has ten silver coins and loses one. Doesn't she light a lamp, sweep the house and search carefully until she finds it? And when she finds it, she calls her friends and neighbors together and says, 'Rejoice with me; I have found my lost coin.' In the same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents."

Reflect

Have you ever lost something of great value and then searched high and low for it? How did you feel when and if you finally found it?

Respond

God's concern is not for lost coins or sheep, but lost people, lost souls. Do you rejoice when you hear of a person who's turned toward Christ?
