Jesus told a story about a woman who had ten silver coins and lost one. Because the coin was valuable to her, she did not ignore its loss. She lit a lamp, swept her house carefully, and searched until she found it. When she did, she called her friends and neighbors to rejoice with her. In this story, the lost coin represents a person who has turned away from God. The woman represents God Himself. Just as the woman searched diligently for what was lost, God seeks those who have wandered. And just as she rejoiced when the coin was found, heaven rejoices when a sinner turns back to God. Jesus said that when one person stops doing wrong and repents, God’s angels and all of heaven celebrate. This parable reminds us that every soul is precious to God. No one is forgotten, overlooked, or beyond His care. When we return to Him, He welcomes us with joy.

Luke 15:8–10 (Easy English Bible)“Suppose a woman has ten silver coins, but she loses one of them. She will take a light and clean the house. She will look carefully for the coin until she finds it. And when she finds it, she will call her friends and neighbors and say to them, ‘Be happy with me because I have found the coin that I lost!’ In the same way, it’s a happy time for the angels of God when one sinner decides to change.”
