Life Out Of Death

About a week from this writing my wife and I will be in Normandy, visiting our family there. The lush green hills are punctuated in Spring by the brilliant golden yellow of the rapeseed fields. It's showery in Normandy in early May and the beaches can be cold and wet before the afternoon sun breaks through.

The prodigal son's story is one that most of us can relate to. The son's return to the father is just the beginning of a new life. We're not told of the joy and fulfillment he must have had after his return, but it must have been wonderful for him and his father.
