Read Luke 15:1-10 with your family.

We have had a lot of hard and heavy things to talk about in the stories these past few weeks. This week, however, we have a nicer story. Something that reminds us how much God loves us.

This week we are reading the stories of the lost sheep and the lost coin. The Gospel of Luke often does this, pairs a story about a man and a story about a woman, so we can really see what Jesus is trying to teach us.

Jesus is telling us that God loves us, no matter what. And if we, or anyone really, starts thinking God does not matter or does not care, God shows that is not true. God will leave all the rest of the people alone just to go after the one who is lost.

That is a great promise. No one is ever forgotten.
