在路加福音15章11节开始,我们读浪子的故事。我相信你读过或听过很多次但容忍我一分钟。实际的‘浪子”意思是“放荡者或废品”。和浪荡子都挥霍他的继承和完全浪费了他父亲给他的一切。

如果你仔细想想,我们都在我们的生活中扮演这两个角色在一些时间。也许我们是老,负责son-keeping一切秩序和我们的父亲从来没有失望,看着那些和那些给罪人休息。我们还年轻one-wasting继承从我们的父亲,向任何人或任何会让我们“快乐”,并运行到目前为止。而是找到快乐和自由的,我们发现自己在奴隶制这其他生命,我们以为我们想要迫切。我们发现自己渴望真正的物质,我们急需我们之前的生活。

还有父亲从不放弃他的儿子,并继续搜索和等待和相信他们总有一天会一个家庭了。儿子回报父亲对爱和同情和拥抱。他给了他最好的长袍和一枚戒指,好像什么也没发生。甚至当大儿子变得疯狂和抗议,父亲不审判他。他是公平公正的,像我们在天上的父。

这是故事:

失去儿子的比喻

耶稣继续说:“有一个人有两个儿子。小儿子对父亲说,父亲,请你把我的遗产份额。所以他把他的财产。后不久,所有他的小儿子一起,动身前往一个遥远的国家。在那里任意放荡,浪费了他的财富既耗尽了一切所有的,后在整个国家有严重的饥荒,和他开始需要。所以他去雇佣一个公民的国家,谁派他到田里去放猪。他渴望填满他的胃猪所吃的豆荚,但是没有人给他。当他来到他的感觉,他说,我父亲有多少的雇工有备用食物,和我在这里饿死!我将回到我的父亲,对他说:父亲,我得罪了天,反对你。我不再值得被称为你的儿子;把我当作一个雇工吧。所以他起来,往他的父亲。 But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed him. The son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against天堂和你。我不再值得被称为你的儿子。但是父亲对仆人说,快!把最好的衣服,放在他。把戒指戴在他手上和脚上的凉鞋。把那肥牛犊牵来宰了。让我们吃喝快乐。因为我这个儿子是死而复活;他迷路了,是发现。所以他们开始庆祝。 Meanwhile, the older son was in the field. When he came near the house, he heard music and dancing. So he called one of the servants and asked him what was going on. ‘Your brother has come,’ he replied, ‘and your father has killed the fattened calf because he has him back safe and sound.’ The older brother became angry and refused to go in. So his father went out and pleaded with him. But he answered his father, ‘Look! All these years I’ve been slaving for you and never disobeyed your orders. Yet you never gave me even a young goat so I could celebrate with my friends. But when this son of yours who has squandered your property with prostitutes comes home, you kill the fattened calf for him!’ ‘My son,’ the father said, ‘you are always with me, and everything I have is yours. But we had to celebrate and be glad, because this brother of yours was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.’ ”

路加福音着(NIV)

你与哪个儿子?你跑到目前为止或你是一个奴隶不是上帝吗?你浪费了所有的神赐给你的东西你认为是更好的吗?还是你哥哥,看着的人,坏的选择,并给出也许有点苦,当他被别人怜悯?

上帝是你父亲和他爱你。如果你有逃跑,他准备见到你你在哪里。他愿意接受你,给你最好的生活方式和丰富的祝福你的!你所要做的是问。神的手臂达到到目前为止,你永远不能超过他。

你知道这个父亲我谈论吗?你想要这无条件的爱,你刚刚读到?然后和我祈祷这:

亲爱的上帝,我知道我是个罪人,我需要宽恕。你的儿子,我相信耶稣死在十字架上,把我从我的罪,我将让他永远在我的心里。我爱你。在耶稣的名,阿们。
