Moral to the story: Just because you're different and feel like you're useless. Doesn't mean you actually are, if you go missing there will be someone that will cross hill or dale to find and bring you home. You're important to them.

But it was contrived just so you’d see it that way, affirming your notion of it. It didn’t happen just because. It happened because yet another human who wants us all to view ourselves as animals in need of something greater to tend to us put it in there so you’d see it and say /think what you said. Nothing new here. Neat medium for sure, but the message is contrived.

Don't we all need a friend to find us when we're lost in despair? And sometimes, is there not a leap to be made in trusting that friend? Perhaps your cynicism is as knee-jerk and simple as that which you criticize.

That someday can be "today". Cry out to your Father in Heaven in his Son Jesus's name. We have all sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. But God in his great mercy, sent his beloved Perfect son to pay the price of our sins. Jesus died on the cross for our sins -past, present and future, and on the third day, God rose him from the death. Death could not hold him. He is now seated at the right hand of God the Father. He intercedes for us. Believe in the truth. May the Lord open your eyes to see the truth, be forgiven and set you free from the bondage of sin.. May the Lord grant you true freedom in Christ the Lord. In Jesus's mighty name, Amen.

When I was home due to the C*vid lockdown I heard myself wishing, "someday I wish I could have sheep," and then I thought of all those who lost their lives, and asked myself, "if not now, when?" And because I have an 80 year old father who could indulge me, and a supportive hubby, I realized my dream. Being a shepherd makes you understand the analogies used in the bible. Only when you've spent time with those amazing creatures do you realize the level of trust and the interaction between the sheep and the shepherd. This short animation does a great job of really embodying the true shepherd. calling the sheep in, tending them, leading them, etc. The good shepherd knows when one of his sheep is lost, and will go out to find it.
