A Heart For The Lost

Last night Joseph's Daddy was reading him a few Bible stories from a new kids Bible.  One of the stories that they read was of the Lost Sheep {Luke 15:1-10}.  After reading Matt left the room and I was sitting on the couch next to Joseph.  He was so intent on looking at the pictures of the story when I noticed that he had tears running down his cheeks.  He was so concerned about that one lost sheep.  We then had a good discussion about how much God loves us and would search for us if we went astray {and how much He loves those who have not yet found Him}.  And oh the joy and celebration that comes when we return to The Shepherd!!  This Mother's prayer is that her little guy will always have a heart for the lost and that he would not stray from the Lord, but if he does, that he will remember how much Jesus loves him and return knowing the joy that it will bring to the Lord {and to those who love him so}!
