Writing A Letter To A Cousin



Parables about the Kingdom of God (Mk 4: 26-34)

"The kingdom of God is like a man who
scatter seed upon the earth sleeps and rises night and day,
the seed sprouts and grows, he does not know.

It is like a mustard seed which, when sown
earth, is the smallest of all seeds on earth, but just
sown it grows up and becomes the greatest of all shrubs, and puts
large branches, so that the birds can shelter in its shadow


Today these parables gives me hope. This 'we see it' s not. We do not know, but the Kingdom of God grows. The seed 'was thrown. In the world .. in us .. And
become' great, as to be visible , and a source of refuge for others.
