The Parable of the Lost Sheep
In this parable, a shepherd has 100 sheep and notices that one of them is missing. Despite having 99 sheep safely in the fold, the shepherd leaves them behind to search for the one that is lost. When he finds it, he rejoices greatly, even more than for the 99 that did not wander off. The parable teaches the value of every individual, emphasizing that no one is too insignificant or lost to be worth seeking out and saving.
This parable is often used to illustrate the concept of redemption and the lengths one should go to in order to help others who have lost their way.
