GO TO THE SOURCE

By Jeremy Burkes

Luke 15:17-18 And when he came to himself, he said, How
many hired servants of my father's have bread enough
and to spare, and I perish with hunger! (18) I will
arise and go to my father, and will say unto him,
Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee,

God is the source of our Christian blessings. The
prodigal son knew where his source was. Everything he
had came from his father just as everything we have
comes from our Heavenly Father.
The source of our power and our salvation is the Cross.
The symbol fo the cross helps us remember the price
paid for our sins. Like the father of the prodigal son
when we turn to God He rushes to meet us.
Many times people will get so deep in sin that they
don't want to draw near to God. When we red the Bible
and God's word speaks to us we see ourselves as we
really are. Like the prodigals father our Heavenly
Father is ready to receive us with open arms.
If you are wandering away from God, go back to the
source of all your blessings. If you are unsure where
you are, meet Jesus at the Cross.
