Luke 15:13 — Meaning and Application

And he said, A certain man had two sons:

And the younger of them said to {his} father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth {to me}. And he divided unto them {his} living.

And not many days after the younger son gathered all together, and took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living.

And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that land; and he began to be in want.

And he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country; and he sent him into his fields to feed swine.
