I say to you that likewise there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine just persons who need no repentance. Luke 15:7
As the dawn breaks this morning... good grief, is it that late already? Yes, it is October and sunrise does not mean early for the remainder of the year. Have you stopped this Monday morning to consider the rejoicing in Heaven over each one who comes in repentance to our Lord Jesus? Once you and I were that one, the one who was rejoiced over by the heavenly host. As we have grown in the knowledge of our sin, we might even wonder who these 99 just persons could be? But then perhaps it is that beam in my own eye that makes those others look so wooden? Why would you or I be carrying that old thing around? Trust in the saving grace of Jesus! Look around with eyes made able to see by our Lord and notice the work He is doing all around us and in us.
C'mon sheeps! Let us follow the Good Shepherd!
