Scripture: Matthew 18:10-14

The Parable of the Lost Sheep

10 “See to it that you don’t despise one of these little ones,(A) because I tell you that in heaven their angels(B) continually view the face of my Father in heaven.[a](C) 12 What do you think?(D) If someone has a hundred sheep, and one of them goes astray, won’t he leave the ninety-nine on the hillside and go and search for the stray?(E) 13 And if he finds it, truly I tell you, he rejoices over that sheep[b] more than over the ninety-nine that did not go astray. 14 In the same way, it is not the will of your Father in heaven that one of these little ones perish.
