God changes us from the inside out, and we live the rest of our lives knowing we are here for a reason.
This parable will help us understand what it feels like to be lost and how God responds to that feeling by always trying to bring us home.
God wants us to evaluate ourselves by how deep and strong our faith is. He doesn’t evaluate our spiritual condition by looking at how we appear on the surface. The depth of our faith determines how much of a difference we can make in the lives of those around us.
When we are insecure, it can be easy to feel like we are a “nobody going nowhere.”
With insecurity, God never responds with criticism. He responds with a purpose to live for something beyond themselves.
