3D Devotional 6.27.19
Luke 15:3-7 Common English Bible (CEB)
3 Jesus told them this parable: 4 "Suppose someone among you had one hundred sheep and lost one of them. Wouldn't he leave the other ninety-nine in the pasture and search for the lost one until he finds it? 5 And when he finds it, he is thrilled and places it on his shoulders. 6 When he arrives home, he calls together his friends and neighbors, saying to them, 'Celebrate with me because I've found my lost sheep.' 7 In the same way, I tell you, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who changes both heart and life than over ninety-nine righteous people who have no need to change their hearts and lives.

Jesus is speaking the religious leaders during this parable. They weren't pleased with who Jesus had been hanging out with and ministering to. We are reminded to be like Jesus, to hang out with people who would be considered sinful or unclean by the religious folks. I'm also reminded during those times that we stray away, the savior is pursing us and caring for us. Lastly, I see that Jesus, loves the judgmental religious folks. The same ones who get so annoyed with him for loving the outside of the religious circle. Jesus takes the time to teach parables to them and express love for them as well. Jesus is seeking all of us, when we are wondering away, when we are being the judgmental, uptight, religious person, and when we are lost somewhere in between. We are reminded to love the same.
