Luke 15 contains one of the most powerful portraits of God ever painted in human language. A young man takes his inheritance, goes to a far country, wastes it all, and ends up broken and starving. Then he came to himself, remembered who he was, and decided to go home. This daily devotional explores the beautiful truth that the father in the parable does not wait inside for the son to knock. He is outside watching, and he runs when he sees the son while he is still a long way off. Perhaps you have been wandering spiritually, living on the scraps of things that were never meant to satisfy. Your Father is not waiting with crossed arms and a list of grievances. He is watching from the porch, He is already running, and the welcome is real. Come home today.
