 Ne 9:17 "They refused to listen, And did not remember Your wondrous 
deeds which You had performed among them; So they became stubborn 
and appointed a leader to return to their slavery in Egypt. But You are a 
God of forgiveness, Gracious and compassionate, Slow to anger and 
abounding in lovingkindness; And You did not forsake them. 

 Ps 103:10 He has not dealt with us according to our sins, Nor 
rewarded us according to our iniquities. 11 For as high as the 
heavens are above the earth, So great is His lovingkindness 
toward those who fear Him. 12 As far as the east is from the west, 
So far has He removed our transgressions from us. 13 Just as a 
father has compassion on his children, So the Lord has 
compassion on those who fear Him. 14 For He Himself knows our 
frame; He is mindful that we are but dust.

The Prodigal Son

 Lk 15:11 And He said, "A man had two sons. 12 "The younger of 
them said to his father, 'Father, give me the share of the estate that 
falls to me.' So he divided his wealth between them. 13 "And not 
many days later, the younger son gathered everything together and 
went on a journey into a distant country, and there he squandered 
his estate with loose living. 14 "Now when he had spent everything, 
a severe famine occurred in that country, and he began to be 
impoverished. 15 "So he went and hired himself out to one of the 
citizens of that country, and he sent him into his fields to feed 
swine. 16 "And he would have gladly filled his stomach with the 
pods that the swine were eating, and no one was giving anything to 
him. 17 "But when he came to his senses, he said, 'How many of 
my father's hired men have more than enough bread, but I am dying 
here with hunger!

The Prodigal Son

 Lk 15:18 ~'I will get up and go to my father, and will say to him, "Father, 
I have sinned against heaven, and in your sight; 19 I am no longer worthy 
to be called your son; make me as one of your hired men."' 20 "So he got 
up and came to his father. But while he was still a long way off, his father 
saw him and felt compassion for him, and ran and embraced him and 
kissed him. 21 "And the son said to him, 'Father, I have sinned against 
heaven and in your sight; I am no longer worthy to be called your son.' 22 
"But the father said to his slaves, 'Quickly bring out the best robe and 
put it on him, and put a ring on his hand and sandals on his feet; 23 
and bring the fattened calf, kill it, and let us eat and celebrate; 24 for 
this son of mine was dead and has come to life again; he was lost and 
has been found.' And they began to celebrate.

The Prodigal Son 

Lk 15:25 "Now his older son was in the field, and when he came and 
approached the house, he heard music and dancing. 26 "And he summoned 
one of the servants and began inquiring what these things could be. 27 "And 
he said to him, 'Your brother has come, and your father has killed the 
fattened calf because he has received him back safe and sound.'28 "But he 
became angry and was not willing to go in; and his father came out and 
began pleading with him. 29 "But he answered and said to his father, 'Look! 
For so many years I have been serving you and I have never neglected a 
command of yours; and yet you have never given me a young goat, so that I 
might celebrate with my friends; 30 but when this son of yours came, who 
has devoured your wealth with prostitutes, you killed the fattened calf for 
him.' 31 "And he said to him, 'Son, you have always been with me, and all 
that is mine is yours. 32 ~'But we had to celebrate and rejoice, for this 
brother of yours was dead and has begun to live, and was lost and has 
been found.'"

Gave His Son For Us 

Ro 8:31 What then shall we say to these things? If God is for 
us, who is against us? 32 He who did not spare His own 
Son, but delivered Him over for us all, how will He not also 
with Him freely give us all things? 

 1Jn 4:7 Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from 
God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows 
God. 8 The one who does not love does not know God, for 
God is love. 9 By this the love of God was manifested in us, 
that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world so 
that we might live through Him. 10 In this is love, not that we 
loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the 
propitiation for our sins. 11 Beloved, if God so loved us, 
we also ought to love one another.

No Longer Orphans But Adopted 

Ro 8:14 For all who are being led by the Spirit of God, these are 
sons of God. 15 For you have not received a spirit of slavery 
leading to fear again, but you have received a spirit of 
adoption as sons by which we cry out, "Abba! Father!" 

 Gal 4:3 So also we, while we were children, were held in bondage 
under the elemental things of the world. 4 But when the fullness of 
the time came, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born 
under the Law, 5 so that He might redeem those who were under 
the Law, that we might receive the adoption as sons. 6 
Because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His 
Son into our hearts, crying, "Abba! Father!" 7 Therefore you 
are no longer a slave, but a son; and if a son, then an heir through 
God.

you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father is in Me? 
The words that I say to you I do not speak on My own initiative, but 
the Father abiding in Me does His works. 11 "Believe Me that I am 
in the Father and the Father is in Me; otherwise believe because 
of the works themselves.

Father Loves Us Like He Loves Jesus

Jn 16:26 "In that day you will ask in My name, and I do 
not say to you that I will request of the Father on your 
behalf; 27 for the Father Himself loves you, because 
you have loved Me and have believed that I came forth 
from the Father. 28 "I came forth from the Father and 
have come into the world; I am leaving the world again 
and going to the Father." 

 Jn 17:23 I in them and You in Me, that they may be 
perfected in unity, so that the world may know that You 
sent Me, and loved them, even as You have loved Me.

Loved Us First

 'Eph 2:4 But God, being rich in mercy, because of His 
great love with which He loved us, 5 even when we 
were dead in our transgressions, made us alive together 
with Christ (by grace you have been saved), ...

1Jn 4:18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love 
casts out fear, because fear involves punishment, and 
the one who fears is not perfected in love. 19 We love, 
because He first loved us.

Renew Your Mind

 Ro 8:6 For the mind set on the flesh is death, but 
the mind set on the Spirit is life and peace, 7 
because the mind set on the flesh is hostile 
toward God; for it does not subject itself to the law 
of God, for it is not even able to do so, 8 and 
those who are in the flesh cannot please God. 

 Ro 12:2 And do not be conformed to this world, 
but be transformed by the renewing of your 
mind, so that you may prove what the will of God 
is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect. 

New American Standard Bible










Renew Your Mind 

Eph 4:20 But you did not learn Christ in this way, 21 if indeed you 
have heard Him and have been taught in Him, just as truth is in 
Jesus, 22 that, in reference to your former manner of life, you lay 
aside the old self, which is being corrupted in accordance with the 
lusts of deceit, 23 and that you be renewed in the spirit of your 
mind, 24 and put on the new self, which in the likeness of God 
has been created in righteousness and holiness of the truth. 

 Col 3:1 Therefore if you have been raised up with Christ, keep 
seeking the things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand 
of God. 2 Set your mind on the things above, not on the things 
that are on earth. 3 For you have died and your life is hidden with 
Christ in God. 4 When Christ, who is our life, is revealed, then you 
also will be revealed with Him in glory.
