The Cost of Staying Lost at Home

Have you ever been physically present but emotionally distant? It's easy to be near the house but far from the heart. In Luke 15, we see the older brother who stayed close but missed out on the Father's love. He worked hard, followed the rules, but his heart was filled with resentment and pride. Just like the Pharisees who honored God with their lips but their hearts were far from Him.

But the Father's invitation remains open to us all. Whether you've been far away in rebellion or standing near in duty, God's grace is waiting for you. You don't have to earn it or fix yourself first. Just come in, lay down your pride, resentment, and performance, and step into the relationship with the Father.

Today, admit where you've held back from God's joy, believe in His unconditional love, and confess your need for His grace. The feast is ready, the music is playing—will you join the celebration? Step into the Father's heart today. #ComeHome #ReceiveGrace #StepIntoRelationship
