The Ninety and Nine

<p>Life experiences provide us with great stories that are uplifting or show overcoming obstacles and are very relatable when put into song. &nbsp;The parables of Jesus can also provide us with that musical and spiritual uplift as The Ninety and Nine by Elizabeth Cecelia Clephane (music by Ira D. Sankey) demonstrates. &nbsp;Have you felt like you have been left by yourself, away from the rest of the flock, at the mercy of the elements and enemies. &nbsp;Take heart. &nbsp;Jesus has not abandoned you but reaches out to you. &nbsp;He has left the rest of the flock in the protected place and is coming to find you and bring you back to a place of peace and safety. &nbsp;When you hear his voice, run to Him. &nbsp;Let Him bind up your wounds and bring you back into His fold. &nbsp;He is searching for you.</p> <p>Article taken from <strong>Living Stories of Famous Hymns</strong> by Ernest K.
