Lost Coin
-
Luke 15:8-10 says, ““what woman, having ten silver coins, if she loses one coin, does not light a lamp and sweep the house and seek diligently until she finds it? And when she has found it, she calls together her friends and neighbors, saying, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found the coin that I had lost.’ Just so, I tell you, there is joy before the angels of God over one sinner who repents.”
The value of a single lost coin in was such that it warranted the woman cleaning the entire house until she found it. The value of a single lost soul is such that the greatest of efforts must be expended to bring that soul to Christ. Each and every soul that is led from a lost state to salvation in Christ is reason to rejoice!
