Kindgom Math

It's a new day and another opportunity to spend a little time in The Word. READ and/or LISTEN to our mass readings for today 😀

Our Gospel (Mark 4:21-25) is super short and hits on some super huge items! We are to be light and we are to share our light, not hide it! Everything will eventually be revealed by the light, nothing stays secret.

We need to pay attention because our time here on earth is short. We need to start listening, believing and following Christ. He is our Light that we must start reflecting into this dark, dark world.

We need to stop judging others, it is not our job! We must stop measuring others up against some standards that we create because we will be measured that way, yet even more so.  The more we judge, the more we will be judged.

We must give more kindness, compassion and mercy. The more of that we have, the more kindness, compassion and mercy will be given to us! The more we forgive and have forgiveness in our hearts, the more we will be forgiven.

Kingdom math isn't like any other kind of math in the world. Kingdom math can take little and multiply it. Anything we give to God, he can take and multiply it into anything! We give him the best we have and he turns it into something we could never dream. He took 11 Apostles to carry The Good News to the ends of the earth without internet or transportation. He took the heart and the hard work of those 11 and multiplied it to become His church!

Look at what Jesus did with some loaves of bread and fish? Seriously, that's the kind of Math I can get behind!

When you give God your weakness, he can take it and turn it into strength!

Go and be Christ's light in this dark world. Shed light in those areas that need it most. Stop judging others and start loving on them. Start living the Gospel with your life and not just reading it behind closed doors!
