相離還遠,他父親看見,就動了慈心,
跑去抱著他的頸項,連連與他親嘴。

But while he was still a long way off,
his father saw him
and was filled with compassion for him;
he ran to his son,
threw his arms around him and kissed him. (NIV)

— 路加福音:十五20b



人們常用許多不同方式來表達自己的愛,『口中的言語』當然是最直接的方式,我們也常用『臉上的笑容、關懷的眼神、溫暖的懷抱』或是各樣肢體語言,來表達自己的愛。但可能很少人會想到,『跑』也是一種愛的表達方式。在這一個大家所熟悉『浪子回頭』的故事中,在兒子懊悔而返家時,耶穌描述說:『相離還遠,他父親看見,就動了慈心,跑去抱他⋯』。不知道在我們一生中,是否曾經有人『動了慈心、Filled with compassion』向我們『跑』來?自己是否曾經這樣向別人『跑』去?這就是父神對我們的愛,我們是否感受到了呢⋯?
