Today’s Gospel Lesson in Luke 15:1-10, lifts up Jesus’ concern for those who the world sometimes forgets about.
Just so, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.’
–Luke 15:10
People who live at the fringes of society are sometimes are easily overlooked. But God never forgets about any who are “lost” in live or in the wildernesses of their minds and hearts. Our Hymn of the Day, “Savior Like a Shepherd lead us” reminds us that ….
We are yours; in love befriend us, be the guardian of our way; keep your flock, from sin defend us, seek us when we go astray.
