YEAST (Matthew 13:33-35)

A little yeast laid in our hearts by Lady Wisdom (Proverbs nod) worked in us (here) and helps us grow into a new kind of living creation (2 cor 5:17).
I know I'm borrowing from a few places but the truth is we are made into something new when we give our lives to HIM. When we cling onto our lives we lose them when we give them up for HIM we truly find life and life more abundant. Another illustration of how The Upside-Down KINGDOM looks a little different from the world we live in, in it not of it after all.
My hope is that as we continue on we will see more and more how a little taste of the True VINE makes us want to really grow. After all, HE'S the Vine, we are the branches, rejoice then when being pruned for new fruit is to bare! ^.^

(0) A maskil of Asaf:

(1) Listen, my people, to my teaching;
turn your ears to the words from my mouth.
2 I will speak to you in parables
and explain mysteries from days of old.

3 The things which we have heard and known,
and which our fathers told us
4 we will not hide from their descendants;
we will tell the generation to come
the praises of Adonai and his strength,
the wonders that he has performed.

Is just a taste of Psalm 78! Go, read through it! See that our ABBA has been speaking HIS truth and wanting to set all things right from the beginning, and that even as HIS chosen complained and broke HIS heart, HE still had mercy upon mercy upon them; if HE hadn't, we wouldn't know anything of those days, rather we see a prophecy and a love letter, knowing humans will fail so HE came into the middle of it, setting right what we never could, fixing what we couldn't and bringing new life into a world rot with death. How beautiful that HE died so we might live! How beautiful that the wind and the waves obey HIS command. How beautiful the feet that bring good news!

JN16:33 “I have said these things to you so that, united with me, you may have shalom. In the world, you have tsuris.(Trials) But be brave! I have conquered the world!”
