How does the story of the prodigal son show reconciliation?

The father and the lost son were reconciled. The father accepted the son when he returned, gave him a robe, a signet ring and sandals. These are all symbols that the son was reinstated to sonship again. Some people interpret this parable as meaning sinners who turn to God will be reconciled to God. But I think a better interpretation of this parable is the nation of Israel - represented by the lost son - would have been reconciled to God if they had accepted Jesus as the messiah.

What was a selfish choice the son made in the story of the forgiving father and son story?

One thought:Luke 15:11-32 relates the parable of the 'prodigal son'. Though given so much love and support from his father, he chose to disloyally and unappreciatively, turn his back on him, and squander his inheritance on a pointless, self-serving, pleasure-loving lifestyle, losing everything his father had held in trust for him. His father's loving forgiveness and open-hearted welcome to his erring son, demonstrates how God feels when someone, once wayward, has corrected his path and returned to God whole souled. This, like all Jesus' parables, touches our hearts and motivates us to avoid badness and do good, to please our loving father.(Matthew 18:12-14)(Jeremiah 31:34)(Psalm 86:5)(Ezekiel 18:21+22)(Isaiah 38:17)(Acts 3:19)
