Worship into the Week-
Shine Like the Sun
Matthew 13
Thinking about growing things and
surely see the weeds in my garden.
Sometimes it is hard to pull the weeds and not
disturb the growing plant.
They need to have strong roots.
Weeds suck life out of "wanted" plants.
All because the Kingdom is corrupted.
Jesus did not use parables to make
difficult things clear to all.
They were spoken to present God's message
so that those with "open ears"-
the spiritually attuned, could understand.
Those with hardened hearts would only hear a story
and add rejection to the pile.
Parables are an example of God's mercy to
those with hardened hearts. At this time it was
the Jewish leaders who were compiling
a mass of rejections to Jesus and His work.
We must pray to have tillable soil to God's Word
and not hardened clay or rock.
For we have this invitation to shine as righteous stars
in the Kingdom of the Father.
What a blessed opportunity.
