A man had two sons. The younger son said, “Give me my money now!” Then he went far away and wasted it all.
Soon he was so hungry he wanted to eat pig food! He thought, “I'll go home and say sorry. Maybe Dad will let me be a servant.”
But while he was still far away, his father saw him, ran to him, and hugged him! The father said, “My son is home! Let's have a party!”
Key Verse
