Luk 15:21-24
“The son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.’ “But the father said to his servants, ‘Quick! 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. Let’s have a feast and celebrate. For this son of mine was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found. So they began to celebrate.
After squandering all that he had,the prodigal son was in distress and utter agony.The memories of being at home were vivid, real and fresh.This provoked an admittance that an err had happened and corrective measure was needed . He purposed to shamble back home and admit to the father to get back his admission letter in the household as a hired servant.
To his surprise, the father was of a different plan. His son’s admission and repentance to wrong doings and willing to change made his dad reinstate him as if he had never left.
There are many prodigal sons and daughters today. Myriads of reasons resulted in separation with parents,husband , wife, supervisors, pastors ,mentors ,children etc. Some are living far languishing in pain not knowing how to mend sour stale relationship.The secret of admitting wrongs done is the key for readmission back to the fold. Admission can bring restoration. Confession is the gateway for possession!
