Luke 13 - 16

Brothers and Sisters,
Now the tax collectors and sinners were all gathering around to hear Jesus. 2 But the Pharisees and the teachers of the law muttered, “This man welcomes sinners and eats with them.”
3 Then Jesus told them this parable: 4 “Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Doesn’t he leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the lost sheep until he finds it? 5 And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders 6 and goes home. Then he calls his friends and neighbors together and says, ‘Rejoice with me; I have found my lost sheep.’ 7 I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent. (Luke 15)
This story shows us the necessity to ask God to give us what we call in Haiti "Le fardeau des âmes." God is really happy when a sinner comes to repentance. How does a sinner come to repentance? By us telling them about the love of God manifested in Jesus Christ.
Please read Luke 13 - 16. And Listen.
May the Lord richly bless you!
