Pat had been having trouble out ofwith his son flat sometime. Sometimes his son Dan had been givinggave excuses about why he wasdid not wantingwant to go to church. andAnd while he was wantingdid want to learn about some of the streetsstories they were being taught, he didn't understand that those stories would help him in life. It just happened this week at church. I had been studying about the lost sheep. Dan did not understand why they were learning about sheep: it just wasn't making sense. Patton had been Raisinraising sheep for years and years: it had passed down from generation to generation. Pat decided thisthat this one evening it was time to show his son what I meanmeant about the story they were studying that week at church. When they got home that evening from church, Pat had realized that one of his sheep had gone missing in the heard. AtHe asked his son if he would like to go outside and help him walk around in the field and to find the one sheep they had lost. Dan said absolutely daddy'absolutely daddy', I loved her worklove working with your sheep. So but then and patthey went. Pat went outside and started looking and calling out for athe sheep, andbut it would never come to them. Yes they were walking the field calling for the sheep. patPat had looked over at his son Dan and asked him what they had been studying at church. Dan saidsaid that it had something about to do with a lost sheep or something. He said "I don't know, dad, iI wasn't really listening."
