The kingdom of God
is like a grain of mustard seed.
When it is sown in the earth
it is the smallest seed.
It is like the kingdom of God
and a mystery.
For when it is sown,
it grows into the largest plant,
greater than all of the herbs
and grows into a tree.
It grows so birds can rest
inside its crown of leaves,
deep in its shadows away
from evil things that prey.
And so we can liken it
to seeds which make a tree
larger than all of the trees
from just the smallest seed.
