12 “If a man has a hundred sheep and one of them wanders away, what will he do? Won’t he leave the ninety-nine others on the hills and go out to search for the one that is lost? 13 And if he finds it, I tell you the truth, he will rejoice over it more than over the ninety-nine that didn’t wander away! 14 In the same way, it is not my heavenly Father’s will that even one of these little ones should perish.
Matthew 18:12-14
Have you checked your expiration date?
We’re perishables.
What do most of us do about our perishable condition?
We wander, from one thing to the next.
What are we looking for?
A preservative.
We know we’re perishable. We know death is inevitable.
If we could just find the one thing to preserve our life.
So, we wander searching for the imperishable.
Searching we become lost. Yes, like a sheep.
Stop wandering.
The eternal Preserver is Jesus.
He knows where you’ve wandered, He’s walked alongside as you’ve wandered.
He’s not willing to see you perish.
Become imperishable.
Say yes to Jesus.
“For the Son of Man came to seekand to save the lost.”
