Be Reconciled.

Jesus said, "'there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine people who need no repentance.'"  Like 15:7 (NRSV)

This is the love of God for his prodigal sons and daughters.

God does not abandon his wayward children.
He understands them.

He does not punish them.
He waits for them to change.
He treats them well.
In the hope that they will change.

So we wait.
Wait until they see.

See the goodness of God.
And be reconciled.
