Lost and Found

God is Gracious

“Or suppose a woman has ten silver coins and loses one. Doesn’t she light a lamp, sweep the house and search carefully until she finds it? And when she finds it, she calls her friends and neighbors together and says, ‘Rejoice with me; I have found my lost coin.’ In the same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.” Luke 15:8-10

When something of value is lost, we search. And when we get lost, thankfully we have GPS to get us back on track. But what happens when we find ourselves spiritually lost, when circumstances in which we have no control leave us without hope? How do we find our way back?

Since creation, God has declared that we are His people and He is our God. And while humanity struggles with this bold proclamation, the truth is we are lost without God. The good news is that God continues to draw His people to Himself so we find peace through any storm. Today, if you find yourself lost, will you take one step closer to knowing God’s very own Son who gave His life to save you?

For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.” Luke 19:10

He then brought them out and asked, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?” They replied, “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved—you and your household.” Acts 16:30-31

Because God is gracious, through Jesus we find hope for eternity.
