day no. 15,835: leavening and leveling

Luke 13:20-21
And again he said, "Whereunto shall I liken the kingdom of God? It is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened."

The kingdom of God is like leaven which works its way through everything and causes it to rise. The kingdoms of egalitarianism are like leveling agents which work through everything and cause it all to fall. Leaven breaths life into everything and lifts it up. Egalitarianism sucks the life out of everything and tramples it underfoot. The kingdom of God ends up light and fluffy and warm and fills the world with a sense of home akin to fresh baked bread. The kingdoms of men end up dark and heavy and cold and fills the world with a sense of discomfort akin to an operating room.
