In Luke 15:1-7, Jesus tells a parable about a shepherd who leaves ninety-nine sheep to seek out one that is lost. This illustrates God's heart for the sinners and His active pursuit of those who stray away. The shepherd embodies Christ, who came to seek and save the lost, reflecting God's unconditional love and mercy. As the rightful and caring shepherd, Jesus shows that no one is out of His reach and that every lost soul is precious to Him.
