"Lost and is Found"
January 25, 2024
Daily Devotion:
"Lost and is Found"
Luke 15:31-32
New International Version
31 “‘My son,’ the father said, ‘you are always with me, and everything I have is yours. 32 But we had to
celebrate and be glad, because this brother of yours was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.’”
Jesus’ parable about the prodigal son never mentions the word love directly, but it’s there in every one
of the father’s actions. Putting yourself in the father’s place and then the younger son’s, re-read today’s passage with an eye toward expressions of love.
What examples can you find? Notice that godly love enables us to respond graciously in trying circumstances. Sacrifice without complaining. Wait
patiently for others instead of pushing them to change. Encourage others. Forgive those who have wronged us. Give generously and serve joyfully at all times.
Assist people who are struggling. Show kindness to those who misjudge or misunderstand us.
Keeping this parable in mind, how can you begin to love others more fully, as the Lord does?
