Lost and Found (part 2)

They stand in need of the illumination of God and cleansed. I am the one who will give diligence and find them. While others, like the prodigal, are lost because they want to be lost. I will wait for them to “come to their senses.” “I eat with sinners because they are in need of being found and accepted.
