Today's Daily Reflection explores Jesus' parable of the lost coin and the lost sheep, using it to illustrate how deeply Jesus values each person and rejoices when the lost are found."Jesus uses this story to talk about himself as the good Shepherd. See, he loves his sheep But it's so sad when they go missing and he searches for them. "And when he finds them, he rejoices. And there's a party for that sheep. And Christians believe that this is why Jesus came to find the lost sheep. "You might remember a few days ago I spoke about being lost as a child. The thing is, I know that when my dad found me, he was so happy. My mum was pleased too. How much happier must the good Shepherd be when he finds his sheep?"
