September 14, 2024 Today I teach you about wisdom and prudence.

 

Beloved,

Today I teach you about wisdom and prudence.

Indeed, there are good friends in your life, but not many. Your friends can leave you like in the parable of the “Prodigal Son”.

That parable teaches you a lot of things.

“The son asked his father to divide his inheritance and went away to have fun with his friends. With money, he had friends. But when he was broke, they all left him. Sitting in the pigsty, eating the food that had been thrown to the pigs, he began to think about his father’s house. He repented, returned home, and was accepted as an heir in the family, not a servant…” LUKE 15:11-32

Playing all night, all day, with friends like the wanderer in the parable of the “Prodigal Son” is a waste of time and energy.

The best time for you is the time you spend communicating with your Father in heaven. Without your Father, you are nothing. You are valuable because He created you, not because of the money, the fancy house, the fancy car, the honor that this society gives you.

Your true worth lies deep inside your soul. You are valuable because of your talents given to you by God the Father. Without God, you would not have true love, peace, and joy.

The house you live in, the car you drive, the clothes you wear do not make you noble. God looks deep into your heart and soul.

Look at yourself honestly and you will see who you are.

“Learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart. I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life…”

Always be grateful for all the good things and talents that God the Father has given you. Gratitude must be sincere and from the heart. Gratitude will open the door for the Father to give you more blessings, such as wisdom, peace…

When the prodigal son returned home, he was not a servant, but an heir of his father. Likewise, when you repent of your wrongdoings and sins, you will be embraced by your heavenly Father. Respect yourself as a creature of God. Thank Him for all He has given you, materially, mentally, and spiritually.

Trust and pray. Pray when you eat, pray when you sleep. Pray always. Pray for yourself, your family, your friends, your society, and the whole world. Now you are the prodigal son who has returned home, and you are welcomed with open arms.

Always remember your first obligation is to your own spiritual growth. Second comes your obligation to your loved ones, third and last you are obligated to pray for the world.

Dear God the Father, let me know You and let me know myself. Knowing You allows me to listen to and practice what You command. Knowing me, to follow your righteous path, to have Heaven in my heart, and to let You be with me forever.

May God the Father grant all spiritual and physical blessings to those who read this meditation in my Blog”.

Amen.
