Tonight's family reading · Lubumbashi
The Lost Sheep — a 5-minute devotion for Lubumbashi 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.
This works best in Lubumbashi as a bedtime reading. Lights low, Luke 15:1-7 read slowly, the memory verse said twice, then the prayer. Younger children fall asleep on "god goes looking for the one"; older ones usually want to argue about it first, which is fine.
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: on the way through Lubumbashi tomorrow, one person says the first half of "Rejoice with me; I have found my lost sheep." and someone else finishes it. Three tries and it is memorised.
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?
