Dad is waiting for you

SUMMARY: This Christmas, if you feel like the prodigal son who wasted his inheritance and wants to return home, know that God is waiting for you with open arms. Don't let your apparent success or riches stop you from returning to Him. Remember the blessings He gave you and the love He has for you. Confess your sins and ask for His forgiveness. Christmas is about forgiveness and the love of Christ who was born, died, and rose again for us. Don't delay, Dad is waiting for you to come home. Merry Christmas!

If you have come until this Christmas feeling like the prodigal son when he wanted to know the world and wasted his inheritance, stop and listen. Dad is waiting for you! Can you believe it? Yes, that's why Christ was born there in Bethlehem and also, when He wanted it, in your heart. Do not hold back; there is wood in the fire of His home and He is already preparing the new clothes to cover you twice after the hug. There is a party in his heart for your return. His sadness vanished when he knew that you thought again of him, his care and the safe rest that he gave to your life while you remained by his side. What did you go around on your own and squander his blessings? Don't blame yourself so much. Think of his open arms and warm cheek the day you gave him the first filial kiss as a grateful child, happy for his presence in your life. He knows that deep in your heart, you have not forgotten him.

What's stopping you? The apparent success you enjoy without Him? Have your riches and assets reached with the many blessings that it once gave you? Don't the colored garlands on your Christmas tree let you see the Cross? Meditate just a little. Dad is waiting for you!
