The stories in Luke 15.1-32 are about the joy that comes with something that was lost being found. And the joy lies in the heart of the one who found it; the shepherd finding his sheep, the woman finding her home, and the father embracing his son. What was lost has been found, let’s celebrate. This points toward something that all of us should hold close: that Jesus is walking around looking everywhere, that he has a broom and is sweeping the house, he’s waiting and watching for his kids to head back home. All because he wants to celebrate.
Maybe the question these stories pose is whether we actually believe that to be true. A second question is, do we recognize we just might be lost? Because if we believe we are found, no finding is necessary and there is no party to be had.
