The Story of the Lost Coin

⁸ “Or suppose a woman has ten silver coins and loses one. Won’t she light a lamp and sweep the house? Won’t she search carefully until she finds the coin? ⁹ And when she finds it, she will call her friends and neighbors together. She will say, ‘Be joyful with me. I have found my lost coin.’ ¹⁰ I tell you, it is the same in heaven. There is joy in heaven over one sinner who turns away from sin.”
