Evening: Psalm 138, 139:1-17; Matthew 13:31-35
Each
kindness, or meanness, multiplies, so that our actions come to have
more significance than we imagine. Small actions – our own or those of
others’ – change things dramatically. Parables invite us to choose the
kind of world we want. They pose more or less the same question, using
different metaphors: “What kind of seed will you plant – weed or
mustard? What type of ‘leaven’ will you be in the life of the community
– malicious, or sincere and true? Will your spark kindle a fire that
warms or one that destroys?” Always a choice … To hurt, or to heal?
