b'The Farther Country Luke 15 #Nightlight #RTTBROS\\nThe Farther Country Luke 15\\nThe story of the prodigal son in Luke chapter 15 is a powerful reminder of the love and grace of our Heavenly Father. It also teaches us an important lesson about chasing after those who have strayed from the path of righteousness.\\n\\nIn verse 13, we read that the prodigal son "took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living." This is a clear indication that the son had already made up his mind to leave and was not interested in staying with his father any longer. If the father had chased after him, he would have only run further and faster away from him.\\n\\nSometimes, we may find ourselves in a similar situation where we have a loved one who has strayed from the faith or is living a life that is contrary to God\'s will. Our natural instinct may be to chase after them and try to bring them back to the fold. However, we must remember that just like the prodigal son, they have to make the decision to come back on their own.\\n\\nIn verse 20, we see the father\'s response when the prodigal son finally returns home. "And he arose, and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him." The father did not chase after his son, but he was always watching and waiting for him to return. When the son finally did come back, the father welcomed him with open arms and showed him unconditional love and forgiveness.\\n\\nThis is a powerful reminder that God is always watching and waiting for us to return to Him. He does not force us to come back, but He is always ready to welcome us with open arms when we do. We must trust in His timing and have faith that He will bring our loved ones back to Him in His own way and in His own time.\\n\\nIn conclusion, the story of the prodigal son teaches us that chasing after a prodigal may only cause them to run further away. Instead, we must trust in God\'s timing and have faith that He will bring them back to Him in His own way and in His own time. Let us always remember that our Heavenly Father is always watching and waiting for us to return to Him, and He will welcome us with open arms when we do.\\n\\nOur Podcast, Blog and YouTube Links\\nhttps://linktr.ee/rttbros\\n\\nBe sure to Like, Share, Follow and subscribe it helps get the word out.\\n\\nRSS feed https://anchor.fm/s/127be410/podcast/rss\\n\\nhttps://linktr.ee/rttbros'
