他醒悟过来、就说、我父亲有多少的雇工、口粮有余、我倒在这里饿死么． 我要起来、到我父亲那里去、向他说、父亲、我得罪了天、又得罪了你． 从今以后、我不配称为你的儿子、把我当作一个雇工罢。 于是起来往他父亲那里去。相离还远、他父亲看见、就动了慈心、跑去抱着他的颈项、连连与他亲嘴。 儿子说、父亲、我得罪了天、又得罪了你．从今以后、我不配称为你的儿子。 父亲却吩咐仆人说、把那上好的袍子快拿出来给他穿．把戒指戴在他指头上．把鞋穿在他脚上． 把那肥牛犊牵来宰了、我们可以吃喝快乐． 因为我这个儿子、是死而复活、失而又得的。他们就快乐起来。
English
And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father’s have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger! I will arise and go to my father, and will say unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee, And am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants. And he arose, and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him. And the son said unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in thy sight, and am no more worthy to be called thy son. But the father said to his servants, Bring forth the best robe, and put it on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet: And bring hither the fatted calf, and kill it; and let us eat, and be merry: For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry.
在生活中默想 · 灵修解释 · Reflecting in daily life · Devotional interpretation
路加福音 15 这一段描绘小儿子回转与父亲迎接的场景。默想时留意他的承认和父亲的怜悯，不把故事简化成忽略后果的许可。 我很久没有祷告，不知道如何重新开口。回到神面前不要求先补上所有遗漏；从真实的一句话开始，已经是在回应邀请。今天可以从一个小而具体的回应开始：用自己的话写一句现在的祷告。 祷告不需要表演平静。可以把感谢、害怕、疑问和盼望依次说出来，也可以留一段安静。
English
This part of Luke 15 portrays the younger son's return and the father's welcome. Notice confession and compassion without turning the story into permission to ignore consequences. I have not prayed for a long time and do not know how to begin. Returning to God need not begin by making up every omission. One honest sentence responds to an invitation. Begin with a small concrete response today: Write one prayer in your own words for this moment. Prayer does not require a performance of calm. Name gratitude, fear, questions, and hope in turn, and leave room for silence.

天父，我很久没有祷告，不知道如何重新开口。我愿用自己的话来到你面前；即使词句不完整，也求你垂听。 奉耶稣的名，阿们。

Father, I have not prayed for a long time and do not know how to begin. I come in my own words; even when they are unfinished, hear me. In Jesus' name, amen.
