Today’s Scripture: October 19
“While he was still a long way off, his father saw him coming. Filled with love and compassion, he ran to his son, embraced him and kissed him” (Luke 15:20).

 

 
The story of the prodigal son is familiar and confusing to many. From the brother’s point of view, he questioned how his father could welcome back the son who had squandered everything. That’s exactly God’s reaction when one lost sinner repents. All heaven rejoices to welcome him home!

 
Is it hard to understand how God can forgive some sinners, or can we easily share happiness towards others when they receive the same grace and forgiveness so lavishly heaped upon us?
