Henri J.M. Nouwen Quote
Once I look at the story of the prodigal son with the eyes of faith, the return of the prodigal becomes the return of the Son of God who has drawn all people into himself and brings them home to his heavenly Father. As Paul says: God wanted all fullness to be found in him and through him to reconcile all things to him, everything in heaven and everything on earth.
