Lord, let us seek the Heavenly things
Lk 13: 18-21 NJB What is the kingdom of God like? What shall I compare it with? It is like a mustard seed which a man took and threw into his garden: it grew and became a tree, and the birds of the air sheltered in its branches.’ Again he said, ‘What shall I compare the kingdom of God with? It is like the yeast a woman took and mixed in with three measures of flour till it was leavened all through.’ As Jesus explains here, the Kingdom of God is like a mustard seed. Here, he teaches humility, and everything is shown in a modest manner. Jesus reminded Pilate that his kingdom was not of this world and that it was in the Spirit of God. The mustard seed, which is so little, symbolizes how we ought to become insignificant and lowly before both God and the people. The Lord will grant us the ability to carry out our earthly and heavenly purposes, once we have humbled ourselves. We shall be able to partake in God's Kingdom by His own way. This grace, which is God's gift, which will enable us to do God’s will in our life.
God will use us in a variety of ways to share the Kingdom's good news, according to our faith in Him. God will use us in a variety of ways to share the good news of His kingdom, which will attract many souls to His love. Without humility and adherence to Jesus' teachings and God's commandments, no one can view the heavenly things.
