are the only kind OF children there are. We see
ourselves I'm one the other. We pride ourselves
that we do not steal, lie curse or do anything

eousness isn't It? II disohey God openly We
ere like the other son in this parable God wants
something more than a slave. The elder brother
tciled for his father. but was hungry with all MS
fathers wealth about him, and II Is just so with
us-we are starving with all Gods goodness about
us simply because. like the elder brother. we VIII
not accept our Heavenly Fathers goodness
