Of course,I missed the point entirely!The message of repentance and forgiveness is there loud and clear.That’s what I should have focused on,the beautiful parable has so much to teach us about God’s abundant love and mercy.

Nice reflection. Jesus gives a 2 for 1 parable. When first introduced to this parable some feel it’s all about the younger son and his Father’s mercy. The other side of this story is very alarming to us who’s heart is hardened (me included).
As Jesus says somewhere else in the Bible (paraphrase) the angles in heaven rejoice over 1 repented sinner than 99 righteous men.
God bless.

I was thinking, while reading it, how wonderful a little story it is to teach young ones about forgiveness and its power to bring happiness and peace into our lives. Again, thank you for your message.
