In the present season, we are seeing the work of God in bringing runaways back home. We all know what is meant by the phrase “prodigal child.” When someone rebels against his or her parents, lives in entitlement, rejects wisdom, and chooses to go stubbornly down a wayward path…this person is a prodigal child. This not only happens in our families, it happens in the spiritual family that has God as its Heavenly Father. For those who wander from God into sin, pain, and shame, there is a present call going out which welcomes them to come back home to Father today. May those who hear this message never fail to remember that grace tells them that they can come fully home. The invitation is still there from God. His door is still open for now. He will meet any and all as they turn to Him. He does not give up on His prodigal child…even when they have given up on themselves.
