In the parable of the lost sheep, Jesus asks us to watch over those around us, to go in search of anyone who strays and to show the same care and gentleness as the shepherd in our relationships and friendships. Seeking, finding one another, going out to meet others and at the same time, experiencing the joy of being loved are all an invitation to gratitude for the mercy that God has for each of us.
