Out of all of Jesus' parables, The Prodigal Son is right there at the top. One son disgracefully asks for his inheritance even before his dad dies, converts his assets to cash, and squanders it in reckless debauchery. Then after losing it all, he comes to his senses and returns to his merciful father who's been watching for his son's return since the day he left.

When the prodigal arrives, his father is overjoyed and orders a celebration. Meanwhile the older son of this same father comes home from work, hears the "welcome home celebration," and becomes furious with his dad, jealous of the attention given his wayward brother, and becomes pathetically drenched in his own self-righteous attitude.

But the same father who welcomed home his younger son, entreats his older son with the same lovingkindness and affection which is summarily rejected. While the initial audience for this parable were the Pharisees who openly scoffed at Jesus' outreach to sinners of every stripe, the audience for this profound story has widened to include us all. But the hero of the story is most definitely the father who clearly reflects the heart of our Heavenly Father whose love and mercy and compassion towards the likes of us is humbling to the core…

Romans 12:1 says: "Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God--this is your true and proper worship." (NIV)

The next 20 Verses that follow demonstrate what it looks like to be a "living sacrifice" demonstrating love, both vertically and horizontally. When an unknown scribe asked Jesus what was the greatest of all the commandments, we find Jesus' answer in Mark 12:29-31: "Jesus answered, 'The most important is, Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. The second is this: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. There is no other commandment greater than these.'” (ESV)

Jesus connects these two commands as though they are inseparable--vertical love unto God and horizontal love one to another. And if we're wondering what this looks like in real life, all we need to do is look at Jesus who always lived up to His own words, perfectly...

John 14:1-6 are Jesus' words, shared with His disciples at the Last Supper: "'Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in Me. In My Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to Myself, that where I am you may be also. And you know the way to where I am going.' Thomas said to Him, 'Lord, we do not know where You are going. How can we know the way?' Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.'" (ESV)

You'll notice what Jesus didn't say in that solemn setting; He didn't say, 'I am a way, a truth, or some life. One of the ways people come to the Father is by Me.' Billy Graham famously said, "You can accept the truth, you can reject the truth, but you can't change the truth." Our culture likes to think one person has their "truth" while another has their "truth" even though they don't actually share the same "truth." While that fiction may prevail among some, Jesus said He was THE TRUTH! And He didn't seem to leave other options on the table. Whether or not we embrace THE TRUTH of WHO Jesus was and ALL that He said, makes all the difference in this world. And in the next...

The Apostle Paul writes in 2 Corinthians 4:16-18: "So we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day. For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal." (ESV)

In the next Chapter, the tent-making apostle compares our bodies here on earth to fragile tents, temporary housing for our souls until permanent glorified versions are conferred to us upon resurrection. Paul goes on to say that in this life we groan, groan with the inherent pains that come with this fallen world, but we also groan for our Eternal Home where groaning will be no more. We hope and yearn for this now because Jesus has gone ahead of us, to make a place for all those who are His! Yay and Amen!

Job is arguably the Biblical poster child for suffering in the OT. While the Scriptures are full of accounts of people suffering for doing evil in God's eyes, following a unique exchange between God and Satan, Job is specifically chosen to endure suffering because of his right standing with our Lord.

Despite all he suffered, despite errant and unwise counsel from his "friends," not to mention his wife who told her husband to, "curse God and die," Job persevered, passing his painful examination. Even in the midst of it all, Job says of God, "Though He slay me, yet will I trust Him!" (Job 13:15)

As we read through the book of Job, God's all powerful, all-knowing, all-present nature is on full display. God's character and attributes most certainly cause our hearts to bow in reverence and awe. But with one hand on our hearts and the other over our mouths, we see something else throughout the book of Job and throughout the whole of Scripture: God's mercy, compassion, and love! They are ever present! And where do we see these most vividly and powerfully demonstrated? In Christ Jesus our Lord!

Prayer is a multifaceted and, sometimes, complicated practice. While it is normal to think of prayer as a list of requests we make to our Heavenly Father, it is so much more than that. As we grow in our Christian walk and become more like Him (this is called sanctification), our prayer life should develop into a relationship that is not unlike a child going to his or her Father with needs, desires, and expressions of trust and love. Sometimes the Father grants requests, and often he doesn't. In both the Old and New Testaments, the saints who have gone before us have given advice in how to approach God, and what to expect as we pray.

Deuteronomy 10:17-20 says: "For the LORD your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great, the mighty, and the awesome God, who is not partial and takes no bribe. He executes justice for the fatherless and the widow, and loves the sojourner, giving him food and clothing. Love the sojourner, therefore, for you were sojourners in the land of Egypt. You shall fear the LORD your God. You shall serve Him and hold fast to Him, and by His name you shall swear." (ESV)

Who could argue that God's love for us has been nothing less than astonishing?! Our Father, via the Son, and by the power of the Holy Spirit, bids us to become like Him with respect to the least, the last, the lost, the distraught, the downtrodden, the afflicted, the marginalized, and all those mourning souls in our midst. Why care? Because He does! If God makes, and Jesus demonstrated, that "The least of these" were His business, shouldn't by extension they become our business too--especially since He said so?

Mark 10:13-16 conveys an encounter with Jesus and His disciples concerning children: "And they were bringing children to Him that He might touch them, and the disciples rebuked them. But when Jesus saw it, He was indignant and said to them, 'Let the children come to Me; do not hinder them, for to such belongs the Kingdom of God. Truly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the Kingdom of God like a child shall not enter it.' And He took them in His arms and blessed them, laying His hands on them." (ESV)

Jesus boldly declared and displayed His heart towards Little Ones, affirming that they were indeed a blessing and by all means not a bother. The text implicitly encourages us to do the same, to consider ways we might be helpful and not a hindrance to Children whom Jesus may be drawing to Himself. And that goes for Children of all ages--those young in age and even those merely young at heart...
