Daily Reading

Matthew 13:24-46; Psalm 18:1-15; Proverbs 4:1-6

Our reading today is full of parables about the kingdom of heaven. So what is Jesus telling us?

1 - At the end of the world, those that belong to Jesus will be brought to Him. Those that belong to the enemy, Satan, will be sent to him. Until then, both groups will live together on this earth.

2 - The kingdom of heaven starts small - with a Man & His followers. But this kingdom grew into a huge movement. If you look at history, the Christian Church spread rapidly from it's humble start in Israel. Christianity is now the world's largest religion.

3 - The kingdom is so desirable, people are willing to give up all they have to gain it.

So, looking back on yesterday's reading, you have two choices to make:

1. Are you a part of the kingdom of God?
2. If so, are you ready to invite others to join you? It's not too late to share the message with non-believers.

Our psalm reveals the awesome love God has for us. I love the imagery of this psalm. Can you see it? God is quick to come to our defense because He loves us so very much. Call on Him today & let Him rescue you.
