The Story of the Lost Son

Every night before going to bed, Kathy＇s father would tell her a story from the Bible.
One night, she asked,“Which story are you going to tell me tonight, Dad?”“I＇ll tell you The Story of the Lost Son. It＇s a ＊ 1 parable told by Jesus.”
Her father continued to tell Kathy the story in his own words.
A long time ago, there was a farmer who had two sons. One day, theyounger son decided that he wanted to move away and live an exciting life.
He asked his father to give him his share of the family＇s wealth, so the father
divided up the wealth and gave his son his share. The younger son left andtraveled to a faraway country.
He had a lot of money and met many people. However, he wasted hismoney living a rich and wild life. After a while, he ran out of money andbecame homeless. He looked for a job, but nothing was available. Finally, hefound work on a pig farm. However, he was not treated nicely, and didn＇t
receive much food. He was so hungry that he even tried eating the leftovers
from the pig ＊ 2 trough.
Finally, he realized the things he had done, and remembered his father＇shome. His father＇s servants were treated like family and had plenty of food toeat. So the son decided that he would return to his father and beg to be one ofhis servants. He set off for home with only the ragged clothes he waswearing.
While the son was at the far end of the path to his home, his father saw
him and was ﬁlled with emotion. The father ran to him and hugged him. The
son fell to his knees in front of his father and said,“Father, I have sinned

against God and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.”But then, the father said to his servant,“Hurry! Bring the best clothes
and put them on him. Let＇s have a feast and celebrate. My son was dead, but
now he is alive again! He was lost, but now he is found!”So they began tocelebrate.
The older son was working in the field when he heard about thecelebration for his younger brother. He was angry and refused to join thefeast, so his father went to him and begged him to come in. The older son
said,“I have worked hard on the family farm for many years and have

let me have a party with my friends. Now, your other son, who wasted all
your money on wild living, comes home, and you throw him a great feast!”
The father said to him,“Son, you are always with me, and all that I haveis yours. We had to celebrate because your brother was dead, but now he isalive. He was lost, but now he is found.”“Well Kathy, that＇s the Bible story for tonight,”said her father.“What do you thinkis the point of the story?”“I think it＇s about how much God loves us.”“That＇s right.

Then her father gave her a kiss and said,“Goodnight.”＊1
