Show Notes

There are times when we give up searching for something we have lost. When the thought that we can get by without it grows larger than the effort of searching further, even the regret we felt at first gradually becomes smaller. But the woman of whom the Lord spoke lost one drachma, and she lit a lamp, swept the house, and searched diligently. When we think about what made her search so hard, the heart of God, who deals with the salvation of one sinner, also comes into view anew. With our eyes, which used to evaluate people according to their usefulness, we cannot fully fathom the meaning of that effort.
