Followers of Christ are made to go after the people who were a part of the flock, but have wandered off. We're not sure what happened to them, and sometimes we don't need to know. But we make sure that when they come back, they don't come back to shame and guilt. They come back to celebration. They come back to love, acceptance, and an open arm embrace.
So, Jesus loves people with a zoom lens. He sees them. There's someone in your life right now who needs to be seen by you? We don't know who it is. We don't know if you know who it is. But maybe...you do know right away who this person is.
This is our prayer: God, who is the one person who you want me to see? Who's the one person who you want to make sure doesn't go unseen?
