Soul Food: Week of September 4, 2022

“Soul Food” is a regularly updated calendar of meditations sometimes questioning conventional wisdom & often suggesting eternal values

Sunday: The kingdom of heaven is like a merchant seeking fine pearls … upon finding one of great value, he went & sold all that he had & bought it. Matt 13:45, 46

Monday: The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed … smaller than all other seeds but when full grown larger than the garden plants & becomes a tree so that the birds come & nest in its branches. Matt: 13:31

Tuesday: The kingdom of heaven is like a dragnet cast into the sea & gathering fish of every kind … Matt 13:47

Wednesday: The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a man who sowed good seed in his field. But while sleeping his enemy came & sowed weeds among the wheat. Matt 13:24

Thursday: For it is just like a man about to go on a journey who entrusted his slaves with his possessions. To one he gave 5 talents, to another, 2 & to another, 1. Matt 25:14

Friday: It is easier for a camel to go thru the Eye of a Needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God. Matt 19:24

Saturday: [And yet] Do not give what is holy to the dogs; nor cast your pearls before pigs lest they trample them under their feet & turn & tear you to pieces. Matt 7:6
