Tonight's family reading · St. Michael
The Lost Sheep — a 5-minute devotion for St. Michael families
Luke 15:1-7 · God goes looking for the one
A shepherd had a hundred sheep and one wandered off. He left the ninety-nine on the hills and searched until he found it, then carried it home on his shoulders and called his neighbours to celebrate.
Parents in St. Michael often ask what to do when siblings are years apart in age. Read Luke 15:1-7 together, then split the question: ask the younger child what happened in the story, and ask the older one why "god goes looking for the one" is harder than it sounds.
Memory verse
“Rejoice with me; I have found my lost sheep.”Luke 15:6
Table question
When have you felt lost — and who came looking for you?
30-second prayer
Good Shepherd, thank you that you do not give up on anyone. Help us go looking for someone who feels forgotten. Amen.
Make it stick: ask the same question again at breakfast tomorrow. Answers change overnight, and hearing that change is how a child learns that god goes looking for the one is something you practise, not something you know.
Tomorrow: the lost coin and the father who runs (Luke 15:8-24). ArkQuest queues the next reading automatically, so nobody has to decide what comes after tonight.
On Mount Carmel, Elijah rebuilt an altar of twelve stones before calling on the Lord. What did the twelve stones represent?
