Scripture:Luke 15:1-10
Now the tax collectors and sinners were all drawing near to hear him. And the Pharisees and the scribes murmured, saying, "This man receives sinners and eats with them." So he told them this parable: "What man of you, having a hundred sheep, if he has lost one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go after the one which is lost, until he finds it? And when he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing. And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and his neighbors, saying to them, `Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost.' Just so, I tell you, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance. "Or what woman, having ten silver coins, if she loses one coin, does not light a lamp and sweep the house and seek diligently until she finds it? And when she has found it, she calls together her friends and neighbors, saying, `Rejoice with me, for I have found the coin which I had lost.' Just so, I tell you, there is joy before the angels of God over one sinner who repents."
Reflection:
Waya higustohi nan mga Pharisee an pakig-iban-iban sanan pakig-himamat ni Jesus sa mga tax collector sanan sa mga sinners kay para dila, hitap’nan kunô Ini nan ila pagka-makasasayâ.
Sa mga susambingay ni Jesus, hikit’an natô an paghatag Nija nan balor sa mga makasasayâ na nasukwahí sa mga taróng.
Para kan Jesus, tanan tawo kinahanglan hatagan gajud nan tsansa na makapag-bag’o.
Amo na mangalimbasug ‘sab kita na mag-bag’o sa ato mga kinabuhi pinaagi nan atô pag-balik-loob sa Diyos.
"Lord Jesus, let your light dispel the darkness that what is lost may be found and restored. Let your light shine through me that others may see your love and truth and find hope and peace in you. May I never doubt your love nor take for granted the mercy you have shown to me. Fill me with your transforming love that I may be merciful as you are merciful."
