Parables of Jesus - Week 11

Parables.jpg

Which Son? Which son are you in the parable of the prodigal?

Or, as in many cases, are you both? Do you use your new-found salvation to complain about what is required and make everyone miserable; or do you rejoice with those who have rejoined the family?

Or, maybe, you are the one who’s going to wait and see if the younger son coming back really means it and has truly repented.

There will be no grump munchkins in Heaven!

Those who complained in the wilderness will just keep on complaining and trying to make everybody as miserable as they are. But we are of a higher calling!

Can’t we as sons and daughters of God rejoice because of the fact we are. The older son had everything the Father had at his disposal; but never lifted his head from “slaving” (his words) for the Father.

Life should be a great adventure for us—but we too often make it the drudgery we had before salvation.

Pick a life you want to live. On the edge of discovering the next adventure God has for you, or the same old things everyday.

Choosing wisely could change your life.
