Parables

Woke up to find an angry message from my teen-age son which ended with something like, "Don't give me speeches again as it would not change anything."  Right.  So full of angst huh?  It was heartbreaking but I guess being away gave me enough space not be drawn right into his drama. And slowly, I found the words.  Hal-way through, I began to realise why Jesus had to talk in parables.  Because it would make you think. Because the stories would draw you right inwards and engages you at the soulful level. Jesus indeed is so full of wisdom. And now, as a parent to THREE teenagers (including Tatay), I am learning and LEANING more and more towards Him and His wisdom. Abba God, help me.
