Our Comfort & Refuge
The LORD is good,
A stronghold in the day of trouble,
And He knows those who take refuge in Him.
Nahum 1:7 NASB

The LORD also will be a refuge for the oppressed,
a refuge in times of trouble.
And they that know thy name
will put their trust in thee:
for thou, LORD, hast not forsaken
them that seek thee.
Psalm 9:9,10 KJV

The Lost Sheep
So he told them this parable:
"What man of you, having a hundred sheep, if he has lost one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the open country, and go after the one that is lost, until he finds it? And when he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing. And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and his neighbors, saying to them, 'Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep that was lost.' Just so, I tell you, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance.
Luke 15:3-7 ESV
