馬太福音 13:31

Reflecting on the legacy we leave for our children, we are challenged to prepare our hearts as fertile soils, to care for the seed of the Word, and to leave a lasting spiritual impact for the next generations. May the grace of God guide us on this journey of faith and learning.

As a writer, mother, and growth-minded individual, I am always looking for opportunities to learn. In the Bible, Jesus taught his followers using parables—simple stories to illustrate spiritual lessons. He is still doing this for me today. When I recently watched Star Wars with my family, the Holy Spirit highlighted it's parallels with His Word. Join me as we unpack the Jedi ways that point us to Jesus.
