The Prodigal Son (Lent 2024)
Manage episode 404946035 series 2668447
Series on The Ascension Lenten Companion by Fr. Mark Toups (Part 4)
If you were the prodigal son would you receive the Father's unconditional love?
The conversion that the Father wants us to have is to move on from a conditional, perfectionistic way of experiencing God to a place of just being unconditionally loved by Him.
But we can sometimes hold onto shame for security, what is asked of us is to leave behind that shameâlet the shame and self-contempt crumble.
We don't need to "pay rent" to be loved by the heavenly Father. Our sonship/daughterhip is not to be paid but is freely given to us. The invitation for all of us is to remain in the forgiveness and mercy of the Father. Let the relationship we have with Him restore and heal us from the place of shame and insecurity that we put ourselves into.
