    We are faced with two options. The first is to see how bad things really are and to focus on them. And we have every right to focus on them because things are indeed bad. Or the second option is to decide even though things are bad, I chose to rejoice and trust in my Lord.

    Sometimes, the most detrimental thing God can do is to grant us our desires. The prodigal son's journey to a 'far country' symbolizes a place that first exists in our hearts. This journey and his eventual return home teaches us about the dangers of desire and the power of forgiveness.

This parable, along with the stories of a lost coin and a missing sheep, teaches us important lessons about God's love and forgiveness. Let us dive into the story and uncover its ...read more
