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。

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.

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。 有一件小事没人发现，但我知道自己没有说实话。回转不只发生在被发现以后。诚实面对一件小事，也是在练习走出隐藏。 今天的一小步：向合适的人更正事实，承担由此带来的具体责任。
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. Nobody noticed a small matter, but I know I was not truthful. Turning back need not wait for discovery. Honesty in a small matter practices leaving concealment. A small step today: Correct the facts with the appropriate person and accept the resulting responsibility.

天父，有一件小事没人发现，但我知道自己没有说实话。求你帮助我在你的话语中看清自己的需要与责任。回转不只发生在被发现以后。诚实面对一件小事，也是在练习走出隐藏。 请赐我勇气，让我愿意这样回应：向合适的人更正事实，承担由此带来的具体责任。 愿我在还不确定的地方继续信靠，也愿意接受合适的陪伴。奉耶稣的名，阿们。

Father, Nobody noticed a small matter, but I know I was not truthful. Help me see my needs and responsibilities through your word. Turning back need not wait for discovery. Honesty in a small matter practices leaving concealment. Give me courage to respond: Correct the facts with the appropriate person and accept the resulting responsibility. Help me trust where things remain uncertain and receive fitting company. In Jesus' name, amen.
