Matthew 13:33 He told them still another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like yeast that a woman took and mixed into about sixty pounds of flour until it worked all through the dough.”
Sixty pounds... that's a lot of flour to mix by hand. That's a lot for even an army cook, let alone a little lady. Like some of the other parables in this series of seven, Time is a key ingredient. God keeps working on us over time. As we allow Him to instill His Word more and more, deeper and deeper into our lives, and it "takes over" we will have more and more influence in the weedy world around us. We need to allow Him time to work in us, and through us in the lives of those around us.
