Running Back To You

Good morning

Scripture reading: St. Luke 15: 11-32

Worship song: You Still Love Me

 


Meditation:

    The parable of the prodigal son is among the many teachings taught by Jesus that deeply resonate in the minds of its audience. In our individual journey, each of us has at times acted like the prodigal son. We have all deviated from God's path, exchanging His presence for a wasteful lifestyle driven by selfish decisions. We may have abandoned what is sacred to indulge in the allure and the glamour that the world has presented. 

    We misused our God-given free will by making decisions that displeased and rebelled against God. When we have squandered all our resources on careless, ungovernable living, only then will we realize all that is left is the remnant of our sinful deeds. 

    When you finally acknowledge that your worldly pursuits have resulted in irreversible damage, remember that you don't have to face it alone. Turn to the Father, who has been waiting patiently for your return. Return hastily to the Father, all prodigals; return and receive the treasures that the Lord has retained for you. Come to the Father while grace and mercy abound. Embrace God, our Father, who loves you dearly and will never abandon you.

Let us pray:

    Sovereign God, all glory and honor belong to You, O King. I give thanks, O Lord, for Your grace and tender mercies towards us. I am grateful to You, Mighty God, for the unconditional love that You have extended unto us. Emmanuel, Abba Father, I glorify You, mighty God, for You have been a faithful God, patiently waiting with outstretched arms to welcome the lost, the wounded, and the prodigal. Father, although we have caused You great grief and pain, You continue to love and show us mercy. Almighty God, there is no place I would rather be than in Your presence, feasting at Your banquet table daily, and surrounded by Your glory. I will cling to You, Lord, with a heart full of gratitude. I surrender all to You, Lord, trusting You to remove anything that may hinder my joyful walk with You. Make me a vessel; shape me into whatever You desire. In the name of Jesus Christ, my Savior. Amen. 

Wishing you a wonderful day. Shalom. 🙌💕🙏

  1. With open arms, a place of refuge, a place can be found in the Lord. No one have to remain in their conditions, just a prayer to the Lord fixes everything. The Lord waits for us, let us not wait too long or too late. 🙏🙏
