The Kingdom of Heaven #1
The Kingdom of Heaven is like yeast
that a woman took
and mixed in three measures of flour
until all of it was leavened!
Matthew 13:33 NRSV
How much is three measures?
According to those who know more about measurements than I, three measures is about 23 liters - 2/3 bushel.
How much yeast does it take to make it all leavened?
The amount of yeast has not been distinguished, but those who bake bread know that it only takes a small amount of yeast to make the dough rise.
Imagine that!
It only takes a little bit to impact largely.
What impact do you make on others?
Has anyone ever smiled at you and it changed your day from sour to sweet?
What is it that you do that impacts others?
Are you the yeast or the flour?
Be yeast.
Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts,
Gye
