Luke Luke 15:22-24, 32 — God the Father gives us the new kingdom life in abundance because Jesus is raised from the dead and alive. God’s kingdom has come and is coming. The Father invites us into the kingdom of joy and to celebrate with Him when his lost children come home. When and because we have come home, we choose joy, life, and truth in the midst of the sadness and sorrow of this world. God’s joy can be ours in this life.
