The parable of the lost sheep teaches us about God's love and compassion for those who have strayed from the fold. Jesus, the good shepherd, searches for the lost sheep with great care and determination, even at great personal cost.

The parable reminds us that we are all important to God and that he will go to great lengths to rescue us from the dangers of sin and bring us back to the fold.
