The Prodigal
Good morning everyone and hope you can say that it’s settled between you and the Lord and Heaven is your home.
Once again, I am reminded of the story in scripture concerning the prodigal son. After requesting his inheritance from his father, and receiving it, he spent all that his father gave him on riotous living.
After spending all of the money and@ having nothing left, he finds himself in a hog pen and begins to think about Home. After contemplating what to say to his father when he gets back home, he makes his way back to his father‘s house.
When he is yet a good distance from his home, to his surprise, his father has been waiting for him all the while and sees his son as he tops the hill. The Bible says that the father ran to meet his son and hugged him and gave to him a fatherly kiss.
The father hugged the son who still had the smell and the ugliness of the hog pen still on him. It did not matter to the father that his son was in this condition, only that his son had come home.
I am so thankful that about 10 years ago, the Lord cleaned me up from the hog pin of life and change my clothes and put a ring on my finger.
I know that I’m not much to look at to so many people on this side of eternity, but the Lord looked beyond my hog pen, life and save my soul.
I say GLORY!!!
