A Year in Luke/ActsНамуна

Today, let’s focus on what Jesus is telling us through the older brother’s part in the prodigal son story. He was in fact just as lost as the younger brother; both needed God’s love to shatter their paradigm. The older brother could only see the bad and was blind to the beauty. He’d become a foreigner in his own house. He lived with a narrative of resentment, poverty, anger, and duty over relationship. In his book “The Return of the Prodigal Son,” Henri Nouwen encourages us to “let our Heavenly Father be the God whose unlimited, unconditional love melts away all resentments and anger and makes us free to love beyond the need to please or find approval.”
Let your Heavenly Father soften your heart today. His love is spacious.
