God is always with us. He will never leave us nor forsake us. We are never abandoned or alone. Our help is in the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.
He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain...
Jesus shares the parable with his disciples, the Pharisees and others. In the story, a father has two sons. Luke 15:11–32 (ESV)
The reward for humility and fear of the Lord is riches and honor and life.
