The Prodigal Son was from one of the best families in town, yet he ended up penniless, friendless, eating with pigs, trying to satisfy a legitimate hunger in an illegitimate way. Why do we get involved in extramarital affairs, go on drinking and drug binges, or work ourselves to death and sacrifice our families in the process? Because inside each of us is an emptiness that nothing and no one but God can fill. Jesus said, When he finally came to his senses, he said to himself...I will go home to my father and say, Father, I have sinned... (Luke 15:17-18 NLT). If you let Him, God will stop you in the nick of time. He will remind you of who you are and where you belong. You will start seeing the mud youre wallowing in, the false friends, the empty achievements, the people around you who are no happier than you. If thats where you are right now, come home. Your Father is waiting to wipe your slate clean. He still loves you. Tell the devil, Ive changed my mind. Im going home.
