Daniel Cramton

Seeking the Lost:

Sheep

Now let us begin a story of three,
And ask yourself, Which one is me?
The first is about a sheep gone missing.
The Shepherd led, but it wasn’t listening.

After the Pharisees accused Jesus of eating with sinners and tax collectors, He responded by telling three parables that contain timeless lessons.

In the first of three inspirational poems, Daniel Cramton explores the first parable that details a sheep gone missing and the feelings that accompanied the consequences of disobedience, and then the response of the Shepherd who showed grace, mercy and kindness. Throughout his inaugural poem, Cramton brings to light the character of God and how He deals with sinners and treats those who have made mistakes.

Seeking the Lost: Sheep is a rhyming poem that conveys deep biblical truths that children can understand while lyrically exploring the first of three parables.
