Jesus says and we say.

Jesus says the kingdom is like a mustard seed
And we say it is like a building
Jesus says the kingdom is like yeast
And we say it is dressing in a suit and singing some songs
Jesus says the kingdom is like salt
And we say it is how we collect the communion glasses
Jesus says the kingdom is about how we treat others
And we say it is all about us
Jesus says the kingdom is like little children
And we say complex theological constructs
Jesus says find the lost sheep, the lost coin and the lost son
And we say it is about me

    Phil, faith is simple - you can just believe. I know that I can not explain what I believe, but I do not believe that I need to. Cause I have faith in God/Jesus, and if I didn’t then … well, I do not want to feel that.
    Also, thanks for all the great posts. ;)
