Give God Your G-U-I-L-T

Have you ever felt guilty or shameful? How does it compare to the illustration of the man and a pile of rocks? If you are comfortable, share some of the internal battles and questions you have faced amidst of your feelings of guilt or shame.

Rather than dwelling on ourselves, what are we to do when facing our guilt and shame? How does this work?

After wasting his inheritance how did the prodigal son describe himself? What was his focus?

How did the father see his son? What did he do to show his son that he was still valuable to him?

How does the “Parable of the Prodigal Son” compare to the relationship we enjoy with our Heavenly Father?

How does God see our past when we are forgiven?
