God loves & forgives
ÒBut while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed himÉ ÔQuick! Bring the best robe and put it on him.  Put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet.  Bring the fattened calf and kill it.  LetÕs have a feast and celebrate.  For this son of mine was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.ÕÓ – Luke 15:20-24
