Matthew 13:44-52

I confess that I am by nature sinful and unclean

Give us this day our daily bread

In God we trust

Our Father who art in heaven

I believe in God the Father Almighty

Words, words, words, words!

Right under our eyes, ears, noses

Shining so bright we sometimes fail to see God’s Glory

In our

---- but it’s bright and sunny

---- I’m too tired

---- I’ve too much to do

---- ho-hum Sunday mornings

right there all the time

only to find

it’s given

freely given

and then sometimes for a brief moment

when we hear a new born baby cry

or the final breath of a life long friend

we hear also the words we speak to comfort them

and the love and hope they carry for us also

and see the shinning treasure

of the kingdom is like..

yeast

pearls

treasures

weeds

mold

and all kinds of things

in Christ’s outstretched hands

and called good.
