Forgiveness

The Son Who Ran Away

📖 Luke 15
Listen

🚀 The Adventure

A boy took his dad's money and ran away. He spent it all on parties until nothing was left. He ended up feeding pigs and wanted to eat their food! Yuck! Sad, he thought: "I'll go home and say sorry." While he was still far off, his dad saw him. The dad wasn't mad; he ran, hugged the dirty boy, and threw a huge party!

💎 The Treasure

The treasure is that God is like that Father. When we do wrong, we get scared. But He isn't waiting to punish; He's waiting on the porch. God's forgiveness is a tight hug that wipes away the dirt.

"His father ran and embraced him and kissed him."

🎯 The Mission

Did you do something wrong? Don't hide. Run to God and say sorry. And if someone hurt you, try to forgive like the Father: without bringing up the mistake again.
