21 Days of Family Devotions - Day 13: Parable of the Lost Coin
Today’s lesson is about the parable of the farmer and the seeds.
Read the Passage: Luke 15:8–10
[8] “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? [9] And when she has found it, she calls together her friends and neighbors, saying, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found the coin that I had lost.’ [10] Just so, I tell you, there is joy before the angels of God over one sinner who repents.”
