God’s Lost Sheep
Written by Joshua Woodmansee, my almost 11-year-old son
We’ll go on with life, but us Christians are too caught up. “The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few” (Matthew 9:37). The people that need to be saved is great, but the people to save them are little. This verse hit me. . .hard. We are not getting out and being a light to this world as we could. We have to go out and find God’s lost sheep.
This reminds me of a story in the Bible when Saul was heading to Damascus and God appeared to him and he became a Christian. All the rest of his life he preached everywhere knowing people were plotting death for him. He went over rough oceans, through stonings, but still clutched to God. He even preached to the people who were arresting him!
You are a light to this world (Matthew 5:14).
This verse could change millions of lives. You tell one person about Jesus, and soon millions could be told from that one person from one effective, powerful word. . .
JESUS!
