In today's Gospel reading from Matthew 18, Jesus told the parable of the lost sheep to his disciples. He said to them, "If a man has a hundred sheep and one of them goes astray, will he not leave the ninety-nine in the hills and go in search of the stray? And if he finds it, he rejoices more over it than over the ninety-nine that did not stray. In just the same way, it is not the will of your heavenly Father that one of these littles ones be lost." In this respect, we are just like the Father, showing that we were made in his image.
