Dad's Ramblings -- Parables of Jesus -- Anger

PARABLES OF JESUS – Anger
Luke 15:26-28a
 
" 'So he called one of the servants and asked what these things meant. And he said to him, "Your brother has come, and because he has received him safe and sound, your father has killed the fatted calf." But he was angry and would not go in.' "
 
The elder brother care nothing for his younger brother. In fact, his anger shows a grudge that had festered for years. When the father blessed the younger brother with blessings he did not deserve, the years of bitterness erupted. How sad that his hard feeling kept him from rejoicing and enjoying the return of his brother.
 
TODAY'S THOUGHT: Anger will keep us from rejoicing in other peoples' blessings.
 
Have a rejoicing day. Love you.
