Build the Kingdom
July 23, Mat. 13:24-43
We are presented this Sunday with parables that describe the Kingdom of God to us. Jesus say it’s like weeds and wheat that will need to be sorted out at harvest time. It’s like a mustard seed and yeast that leavens the bread.
Jesus in part is saying the Kingdom of God is here and real, but its presence is also hidden and mysterious. The challenge to us is that will we work in faith to help build the Kingdom by good deeds and love even if the outcomes aren’t visible and apparent to us.
