Empty Pockets...

Hey G's and S's and F's, it's me. Johnny. Le Mutant (Make sure you say that with some serious French gusto!) For my addition to this space......here is a quote that I relate to in feeling like the prodigal son.

It is to the prodigals...
that the memory of their Father's house comes back.

If the son had lived economically he would never have thought of returning.

--- Simone Weil

I guess there are a lot of ways in which I actual relate, but they all come back to the broken and sinful state that I find myself being in when I am walking away from the Father. The brokeness of me is like having empty pockets and slopping around in the mud with pigs...and then remembering my Father's house!

Anyway, sorry for the random, confusing quote...Nice to see our little digital community!
