Luke 15:31-32
"And he said to him, 'Son, you are always with me, and all that I have is yours. It was right that we should make merry and be glad, for your brother was dead and is alive again, and was lost and is found.'"
Personal Challenge...
I find myself wondering when I read this passage if I am not more like the elder son. Do I hold others in contempt when they have spent their life away from the Lord and now come running to Him and receive such a warm welcome. I should be rejoicing as the Father does. I must remember that He once threw a party for me because I came home to Him as well.
