“‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost.’ Just so, I tell you, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance.”
Excerpt, Gospel Reading, Thursday 7th Nov. 2024 – LUKE 15:1-10.
So, as a parent, would we really want to lost any of our children, even if they are wantonly obstinate?
Could it not be for the above☝️reason why parents, especially mothers tend to love and are more passionate about such children, especially the boy child?
Dear friend, that is how the Almighty God our heavenly Father and King is also very passionate about us.
We must know that God doesn’t hate us. He only hates the sin that we commit. And He passionately desires that we detach ourselves from sinfulness.
We are God’s children and He do not want to lose even a single one of us.
So, my dear friend, whenever we want to do bad, that silent, almost unheard voice at the back of our mind prompting us to desist, is our guardian angel.
And whenever we resist the urge of doing something wrong and we do not do it, there is usually great rejoicing by the host of angels.
Therefore, when we eventually make the decision that we are no longer going to be subjected by sin again, that we are going to make conscious efforts to live over and above it, our action prompted by that decision throws the hosts of heaven into a frenzy of joyous jubilation.
My dear friend, one must be psychotic and requiring of psychological evaluation if they, too, aren’t happy that their positive move has brought happiness to their parents and not the less, the hosts of heaven.
May God give us the grace to permit His will to be realised in our life.
Have a fantastic day folks.
