Read Mt 13.31-33, 44-46 – “The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed, leaven, treasure, and a priceless pearl.” Jesus had a way of lifting up the people’s eyes. He helped them to see, not what could be, but what would be. He inspired people with the truth and certainty of the growth of God’s kingdom. He challenged them to place their values and priorities in the kingdom of heaven. Jesus ignited the heart and stirred the soul toward the things of God having eternal worth. Are we casting vision this way? Are we touching both heart and soul and reminding people that they are a part of the greatest enterprise known to man, the kingdom of God.
