"It is like the yeast that a woman took and mixed in with three measures of flour until the whole batch of dough was leavened."
Luke 13:21
This struck me this morning...that the presence of God, within all who love God and desire to share God with the world, is like the yeast. The yeast doesn't just change part of the flour mixture, right? The yeast mixed in with the dough changes the entire batch, not just part of it. There isn't one part of the dough that rises and the rest does not. Likewise, the love of God, mixed into the dough of this world doesn't just affect part of the world. All of the world is changed by the presence. We carry the love of God into all of our environments, not just our Sunday environment, and in that, all of our environments are touched and changed by the love of God. Today, as we go out to all of our activities in God's world, let's remember that we carry the ultimate leaven, the love of God. Let's make sure we share it will all we meet! Love, heidi
