800 PACOS

(These thoughts are added to each day. Scroll down and read previous One A Days.)

Ernest Hemingway is one of my favorite authors and in one of his stories he tells of a father who had a rebellious son named Paco. Ultimately, Paco became a modern-day prodigal son and ran away from home. Overwhelmed with grief and concern, the father finally, in one last desperate attempt to find his son, put an ad in the local newspaper. It read:

“Dear Paco, meet me in front of the newspaper office at noon. All is forgiven. I love you.” The next day 800 Pacos showed up. They all were responding to the fact their father loved them and forgave them.

And God says, Dear John, Jane, James, Nancy meet me in the front of your soul any time during your life. All is forgiven. I love you.”

I like the way God’s love is described in 1 John 3:1 “How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God!”
