THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN IS LIKE...

January 29, 2013

Want to learn about God and how God is?  Read the parables, and think about them.   

 
"The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed, which a man took and planted in his field. Though it is the smallest of all seeds, yet when it grows, it is the largest of garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds come and perch in its branches."          
                                                         --Matthew 13:31,32 TNIV
 
The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed.  It's small, easy to overlook, seemingly insignificant in our world of "big," but don't be fooled.  Pretty soon it's big, unbeknownst to us, and many find shelter and rest therein.  Or...Jesus says it's like yeast in the flour.  Try to separate it!  It's doing it's thing; it converts the lump of dough.

That's the way God does God's thing!  Take heart, mustard seeds win!  The yeast is doing its thing.  The kingdom of heaven is at hand. 
 
Joyfully,
