Jesus is teaching again. He’s trying to help us understand and embrace this kingdom of heaven living. He’s giving us all we need to live a discipleship that is beyond our wildest dreams.
Jesus told lots of parables, but he hardly ever explained them. This Sunday we’ll hear one big exception. A farmer is planting seed . . . Jesus explains . . . God is embedding the kingdom of heaven into life… We are the road/gravel/weeds/good earth. The faith life begins with God and requires our participation. The faith life is a beautiful cooperation between the master farmer and the simple plants, together growing into a bounty beyond our wildest dreams.
Learning effective cooperation is like learning your part of a beautiful dance. Cooperate, don’t dominate. Cooperate, don’t forsake.
Peace,
Pastor Mia
