Talk Together

Talk together

  1. Why did the younger son decide to go back home?
  2. Why did the father run out and hug his returning son instead of getting angry?
  3. If God waits for me and loves me like this, with what heart can I come to Him?

Prayer

Pray together

God, thank You for waiting with open arms even when I do wrong and go far away. I believe in You, the God who loves me like the father who hugged his returning son. Help me be a child who always comes back to You. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
