LUKE 15:11-24
LUKE 14-16

In the Parable of the Prodigal Son, the younger brother asked for his inheritance early so he might live as he chose. Once the father gave it to him, the young man made many unwise choices. What happened next illustrates the principles of godly repentance.

After squandering all of his money, the wayward son found work feeding pigs. One day he came to his senses and recognized his terrible plight. His repentance began with an awareness of his wrong choices and the fact that his situation was due to them.

Knowing that his difficulties came from unrighteous behavior, the prodigal grieved over his mistakes and acknowledged his sin (Luke 15:18). He declared he was no longer worthy to be considered his father’s son. His repentance was made complete when he turned away from his old ways and returned to his father. The Lord likewise calls us to repent and return to Him.

What a welcome the wayward young man received! Upon seeing his son, the father was filled with compassion and ran to embrace him. Forgiveness and acceptance were extended—blessings that God also freely offers to whoever asks Him.

The prodigal son did not clean himself up before returning home. He simply left his old life, turned toward home, and trusted in his father’s mercy. And so can we.
