10 For the Son of Man came to seek and save those who
are lost.” Luke 19:10 (NLT)

him will not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16 (NLT)

Lost people matter to God... ...therefore lost people matter to us.
16 “For God loved the world so much that he gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in
him will not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16 (NLT)
Whatever God creates, has integrity!
17 …anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new
person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!
18 And all of this is a gift from God, who brought us back to himself through Christ. And God has given us this task of reconciling people to him.
19 For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to
himself, no longer counting people’s sins against them.
And he gave us this wonderful message of reconciliation. 20 So we are Christ’s ambassadors;
God is making his appeal through us. We speak for
Christ when we plead, “Come back to God!”
21 For God made Christ, who never sinned, to be the
offering for our sin, so that we could be made right with God
through Christ. 2 Corinthians 5:16-21 (NLT)
34 So now I am giving you a new commandment: Love each other. Just as I have loved you, you should love each other. 35
Your love for one another will prove to the world that you
are my disciples.” John 13:34-35 (NLT)
Loving God, you have made me a new creation.Yet I still want to hold on to the old.
I want things to be comfortable and familiar.Forgive me.
Lord, give me your heart for the lost.Let me shed your tears.
