return, I will reimburse you for any extra expense you may

later the younger son gathered all he had and traveled to
a distant country, and there he squandered his property
in dissolute living.
 18: I will get up and go to my father, and I will say to him,
‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you;
19
I am no longer worthy to be called your son; treat me like
one of your hired hands.’
Luke’s Parable of the Prodigal Son

still far off, his father saw him and was filled with
compassion; he ran and put his arms around him and

and approached the house, he heard music and dancing…
