It's all good so far

Today’s reading from Mark is another parable. This one was about the mustard seed. The thing that struck me more than the parable is that Christ continued to spread the word through parables but He provided explanation to the Disciples.

I guess that there are always things that are going to be known by some while the rest of us wade throught the mystery. But isn’t acceptance of mystery faith? Don’t we proclaim the Holy Mysteries ” Christ has died, Christ is risen, Christ will come again”. Aren’t we called to the table in communion with our fellow Christians to share in Holy Mysteries made flesh?

There is a folk singer Iris DeMent who wrote a song “Let the Mystery Be. “

Perhaps Christ wants us to work towards understanding the mystery through prayer, through study, through experinces. It is something to work on. And we should realize that the journey is important, that we should have faith, and we should let the mystery be.
