Daily Bible Reading Day 107

1Samuel 19-21; Luke 15:11-32. Saul continues his campaign against David. Jonathan continues to help David. The text shows that David at first wasn't continually on the run. It also shows that David didn't understand why Saul was out to kill him.

Jesus tells the third parable about God reclaiming the lost with the Prodigal Son. Perhaps this parable is so well known that it's almost impossible to see it fresh each time you read it. Yet it still retains the power to present to us a loving father willing to welcome us back home when we come.
