Evening: Psalm 68: 1-20, 24-36; Matthew 13:44-52
Pearls of wisdom are popular internet fodder; they help us make sense of things. But for Jesus, there is only one true pearl, one real treasure, beside which everything else is as nothing. That treasure is found in him. We are vulnerable to injustice and lies and they will bring us to a bad end, like the rotten fish in Jesus’ parable. His Way is diametrically opposed to that. Jesus’ Way, grounded in ancient wisdom, is a startlingly new and vital path of justice and truth. His call to follow him is urgent … our need is urgent.
