A Prayer about the Welcoming Father

And he arose and came to his father. And while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and felt compassion, and ran and embraced him and kissed him. Luke 15:20.

Waiting Father,

Thank you for the beautiful story 

of the returning son and the waiting father

(aka the Prodigal Son story) 

Jesus told the story to demonstrate 

what our Heavenly Father is like.

You are a Father who forgives instantly, 

without bearing a grudge.

You are a Father who throws extravagant parties 

to celebrate our return.

You are a Father who loves 

the proud elder brothers 

and the rebellious younger sisters. 

You are a Father who welcomes all 

to know your wildly generous grace 

in Jesus Christ, our Savior.

In the name of your perfect Son, Jesus, we pray. 

Amen. 

Read Luke 15: 11-32.
