The love of God finds us wherever we are but will not leave us there. It is a love that hugs us with a divine embrace reserved for family and prodigals. It lifts us up and brings us out. It fills us with aspiration and real hope. It washes the accumulation of the pig pen from us. It throws a party for us where earth rejoices with heaven over another lost one that love found. It gets inside of our mind to transform us from our pig pen thinking that got us there in the first place. Rejoice in your Father’s love!
And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and his neighbors, saying to them, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost!’ Luke 15:6 (NASB)
