LOVING A PRODIGAL: Learning to Rest

foreword

Are you tired? Weary? Need a break?

When you love a prodigal, it is usually easy to say "yes!" to those questions.

Our minds are exhausted from striving to know where our prodigals are and what they are doing, and trying to find something that works that will bring them back. Our hearts are so weary from the battle, the confusion, the loss, the fear. Even our bodies are tired –depleted from conflict, sleep-deprived, worn out from going to and fro looking for help.

God says, "Take the day off."
