Matthew 18:12-14
“Look at it this way. If someone has a hundred sheep and one of them wanders off, doesn’t he leave the ninety-nine and go after the one? And if he finds it, doesn’t he make far more over it than over the ninety-nine who stay put? Your Father in heaven feels the same way. He doesn’t want to lose even one of these simple believers.

Good shout (i like this Bible thingy), but just a thought…don’t forget the ninety-nine sheep who you think are ok while you’re hunting for the lost one.
Example: I have friends, family and work colleagues who aren’t Christians whom I pray for and try to bring closer to God (think of them as lost), but I’ll still also pray for the Christians I’m close too, to stay close to God and develop their relationship with him, and lead good Christian lifes.
