Luke 15:20-24

20“So he returned home to his father. And while he was still a long way off, his father saw him coming. Filled with love and compassion, he ran to his son, embraced him, and kissed him.

21His son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against both heaven and you, and I am no longer worthy of being called your son.’

22“But his father said to the servants, ‘Quick! Bring the finest robe in the house and put it on him. Get a ring for his finger and sandals for his feet.

23And kill the calf we have been fattening. We must celebrate with a feast,

24for this son of mine was dead and has now returned to life. He was lost, but now he is found.’ So the party began.
