The Lost Sheep

So I am taking this really great institute class it is on the Parables of Jesus Christ. Pretty much the most amazing class ever. Well today the lesson was on the story of the Lost Sheep. My teacher told us this most remarkable story that I just had to share make sure you have tissues close by. So there was this girl her name was Julie(not real name) well Julie was a great Latter-Day Saint kid her dad was a Bishop. Well one day Julie wanted to go to a party and her parents didn't want her to go. Well like most young teenagers Julie went anyway. That night at the party Julie was tempted with things that weren't so great. She awoke the next morning to find herself in bed with a guy that she didn't know. Because of this huge mistake Julie felt that she couldn't go home so she didn't and she had not talked to her parents in seventeen years. Yes I typed it write seventeen years. Well to make a long story short Julie decided to go back to church. Her Bishop helped her and even incouraged her to call her parents. Her parents thought that she was most likely dead. Well Julie couldn't because she didn't think that her parents would want to hear from her because of all the bad things that she had done. So Julie waited to contact her parents and she also started to put her life in order. This took her two more years. So by this time it had been almost NINETEEN years. Well on the day that Julie was going to get her fellowship back in the church her wise Bishop said don't you think that it is time to call your parents? Julie didn't know what to do she didn't even know where to begin to find them. Well her Bishop knew because Julies parents were in her stake the Bishop even knew them. So you can imagine the sweet reunion that took place. I can't really explain the story in writing but if you want to hear more about it give me a call. It is amazing how Heavenly Father looks out for his childen and will always love them no matter what!
