One aspect I love about the lord Lord is the passion and joy He has to find us and pursue us when we're lost.  If you've ever been lost you really appreciate those who come and look for you.    

It's important we believe and know how much God loves us.  We see in Luke 15 and John 15 how much He does by coming to find the lost and celebrating when His children come to Him.  

We learn to trust He is good.
