Gospel  Mt 18:12-14 

Jesus said to his disciples:

"What is your opinion?

If a man has a hundred sheep and one of them goes astray,

will he not leave the ninety-nine in the hills

and go in search of the stray?

And if he finds it, amen, I say to you, he rejoices more over it

than over the ninety-nine that did not stray.

In just the same way, it is not the will of your heavenly Father

that one of these little ones be lost."

Reflections:

The parable of the lost sheep reveals who we are and  what is our value and worth in the sight of God. God says that even if a mother forgets her child, God would not forget us. God does not want even one of the little ones to perish. 

Activity : 

Pray for the one you think is in a worse condition than you are in spiritual life. Pray for yourself too.
