God, My Fatherনমুনা

From the parable of the prodigal son, we learn that there are two different attitudes with which we can face a relationship with God.  We see in the Bible that the youngest son, when he is free to live his life, makes some very serious mistakes. . His mistakes lead him to pay the price of living in misery. Nevertheless, he returns to his senses and thinks first of all, that if he were to be a servant in his Father's house he  would have a better life. He comes back with the right attitude, “I am a bad man. I have sinned and I do not deserve to be called a son, I would like to be at least a hired servant. However, my Father is good, therefore I will go to Him.” The Father does not lose sight of the identity of his son, and does not receive him as a servant but as a SON . He gives him new clothes (Christ), a ring (authority), sandals on his feet (Holy Spirit that equips him to go on),and finally makes a party to celebrate. The older brother, on the other hand, considers himself an exemplary man, a hard worker, but badly rewarded. From his vision, he is the good one  and his Father is bad and unjust. The Father does not confuse this son’s identity either but says,, “ My son, all that is mine is yours.” The difference is in the attitude of the children. If you think you are good and that your Father must reward you for what you do, then you fall into a slave mentality and do not enjoy your Dad's provision; But if you believe that despite being a sinner you have a Father who forgives you and restores you, then you know well that you are a SON OF GOD.
