Summary: Jesus compares the Kingdom of God to a tiny mustard seed that grows into a large bush and to yeast that makes dough rise, illustrating its powerful, steady growth.
Gospel Acclamation: Blessed are you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth; You have revealed to little ones the mysteries of the Kingdom. (Matthew 11:25)
Jesus said, “What is the Kingdom of God like? To what can I compare it? It is like a mustard seed that a man took and planted in the garden. When it was fully grown, it became a large bush and the birds of the sky dwelt in its branches.”
Again he said, “To what shall I compare the Kingdom of God? It is like yeast that a woman took and mixed in with three measures of wheat flour until the whole batch of dough was leavened.”
